IPSA Launches the 2025 IPSA World Congress Host City Bid Process

IPSA has launched the bidding process to select a host city for the 2025 IPSA World Congress of Political Science, which will remain open until 20 May 2022.

Once cities are shortlisted by the Bid Evaluation Committee (BEC), site visits will be organized in August-October 2022. The 2025 host city will be selected by the IPSA Executive Committee based on the recommendation of the BEC and announced in January 2023.

As per the IPSA Rules and Procedures, an application to host the Congress can be submitted by a national or regional political science association that is a collective member of IPSA, or by another body recognized by IPSA as an appropriate host organization (university campus, faculty or department).
