Since its opening in 2014, the Center in Delhi has enabled University of Chicago to deepen its ties and advance collaboration across many fields of academic inquiry in India. The Center in Delhi supports UChicago scholars and their collaborators in India by providing them with resources and support to make new connections and to develop and execute impactful research. The resulting collaborations have directly enriched scholarship and research in these fields and have contributed to the growing ties between the people, institutions of India, and the United States. The Center is also home to a variety of educational and social activities for the vibrant local alumni community and the general public.

As we celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Center in Delhi, your participation during Giving Day will be a vital vote of enthusiasm for the next 10 years of the University of Chicago’s engagement with India. Help us to support collaborations between UChicago and partners in India that lead to positive impacts for India and its citizens and foster a world made better by the pursuit of knowledge. Your gift enables more and future partnerships among our global community of researchers, students, alumni, and the engaged public in India and the US.
