About SPAIR

The Student Project for Asian and International Relations (SPAIR), a registered and tax exempted institution, is the official networking club of HPAIR, the Harvard Project for Asian and International Relations, in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Through its local expertise, fundraising, marketing and university outreach campaigns, SPAIR contributes significantly to the success of the annual flagship conference.

In close collaboration with HPAIR and with Asian and International associations, we foster the intercultural dialogue with Asian societies and build friendly relationships between future leaders studying at the world’s most recognized universities. Individually and collectively, we believe in the great potential of the Asia-Pacific region.
