World Affairs is an independent, non-partisan forum for exploring issues and opportunities that transcend borders. By convening over 150 programs World Affairs engages thought leaders, change-makers, and citizens to share ideas, learn from each other, and engage in conversations of public concern on global issues. Through these and other programs, in addition to on-air and on-line multi-media offerings, World Affairs provides the public and the community which it serves, with the knowledge and networks they need to be better informed in their choices and actions that relate to global issues and international affairs. The organization believes that solutions to the world?s most challenging problems are found when the private, philanthropic, and public sectors work together.
