ESTABLISHED: 1923
MISSION: To ignite our community’s engagement in foreign affairs and its diverse cultures.
SERVING OUR COMMUNITY: Through global education, international exchange, and cultural awareness initiatives, the World Affairs Council strengthens Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky’s international identity and engages individuals with foreign affairs. The Council educates globally-minded students today for globally-minded graduates and employees tomorrow while providing professional development opportunities for teachers. While exploring regional trade issues, countering gender-based violence, cybersecurity, entrepreneurship, and more, the Council provides opportunities for local specialists to build global ties with more than 150 international leaders annually through the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program. We value our strong global community.
