Who We Are
Are you curious about the world beyond our borders? Do you want to understand the forces behind the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, or the issues facing democracies in Southeast Asia, the global reach of China and Russia? Are you concerned with the national security challenges posed by rapidly changing technology, cyber-security, climate change, and global terrorism?
The World Affairs Council of Albuquerque hosts programs and discussions on critical international issues that impact the local community and the world at large. At our monthly speaker series, usually dinner meetings, you will hear accounts from first-source experts, unfiltered by media accounts and often increasingly scarce to find in the public domain.
Our Vision
The World Affairs Council of Albuquerque is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to informing its members about the broad range of policy choices facing the United States. We do that by bringing nationally recognized experts to Albuquerque to speak to and engage with our members and guests.
