Welcome to the UCL Indo-Pak Development Society 2026/27!

UCL IPDS offers a welcoming and open space for student-led discussions around the development of South Asia, particularly India and Pakistan. Join us for events where we all learn (from professors, journalists, and politicians), and talk (through debates and social events)!

Our £3 membership includes the following:

A fun ‘Chai and Chat’ alongside a variety of Indian and Pakistani snacks
A Desi trivia night with food and board games
Lectures and talks from professors
Our flagship event - our ‘Beyond Borders’ conference - a large panel of speakers
Friendly debates and discussions
A movie night
Visits to Indo-Pak art exhibitions and museums

And much more!

UCL IPDS is open to all students, regardless of background. Find us during Welcome Week! For more information and to get to know us better, make sure to check out our Instagram @uclindopak.

Student groups are run by UCL students and facilitated by Students’ Union UCL. The Union is an educational charity and part of how it supports the education of students at UCL is through facilitating a diverse range of opportunities for students to run, join and experience different interests, groups and activities. Each student group decides its own events, activities and views (within our risk management framework).

Student groups are intended to represent the full range of views amongst our diverse student community. The Union does not endorse, approve or speak for any student group, and their statements and activities do not represent the Union’s position.
