Please note that we are currently limiting our in-person presence at the Center to Harvard faculty, students, staff, and Davis Center affiliates who have an assigned office. Harvard continues to prioritize health and safety as the campus community resumes in-person teaching and research.
The Davis Center is located in the Center for Government and International Studies (CGIS) complex, on the third floor of the South Building, 1730 Cambridge Street. Part of the University's Cambridge campus, the CGIS complex is located several blocks northeast of Harvard Yard.
