Event Description:
Each year, all Lake Forest College students are invited to participate in the Public Policy Analysis Challenge. This interdisciplinary competition challenges teams of students to develop policy recommendations based on the competition's theme, which changes year-to-year.
The theme of the 2025-2026 Public Policy Analysis Challenge is "Governing the Environment." We invite our students to apply an interdisciplinary approach to develop rigorous, evidence-based policy proposals directed at the local, state, national, or international level of governance, which will be evaluated by a team of external experts.
The Public Policy Analysis Challenge provides students with the opportunity to practice policy in an exciting applied context. Students gain hands-on experience throughout the competition process while benefitting from tailored mentorship.
