Joshua Bond, an experienced higher education development professional, will join the Duke Sanford School of Public Policy as associate dean for development and alumni relations, incoming Dean Judith Kelley announced today.
“Josh brings a depth of professional experience and results from nearly two decades around Duke,” Kelley said.
“The search process, led by Duke Associate Vice President for Development Stephen Bayer, turned up an amazing pool of candidates,” Kelley said. “Josh stood out as someone who cares deeply about people and building relationships. I am confident that he will be a crucial addition to our leadership team and to our school as a whole.”
Bond has served as director of development at the Duke Global Health Institute (DGHI) since 2008. In this role, he designed and implemented the Institute’s fundraising program and established the Institute’s board of advisors. At the conclusion of Duke Forward, Duke University’s most recent comprehensive campaign, DGHI had far surpassed its original goal of $32.5 million, raising just over $60 million to support faculty, students and international partnerships.
DGHI Director Dr. Chris Plowe praised Bond’s “incredible track record of accomplishment.”

He began his career at his alma mater, SUNY-Binghamton, where he earned a B.A. in literature and rhetoric. He earned his M.A. in liberal studies at Duke.
“I am excited to join Dean Kelley and the impressive faculty, students, alumni and staff at the Sanford School of Public Policy,” Bond said. “I look forward to working with the talented team in development and alumni relations to strengthen the alumni network and build on the school’s fundraising success.”
Bond is an avid open water swimmer and enjoys spending free time in the mountains of North Carolina with his family. He will start work on June 25 and will lead a team of five advancement professionals at the Sanford School.
