Event Description

Join Young Black Professionals in International Affairs (YBPIA) and Elliott School Alumni Programs for a virtual networking event, which is open to all members of the GW community and is inclusive of all races and identities. Take this opportunity to meet the student members of YBPIA and connect with fellow alumni interested in their efforts through breakout rooms and conversations. YBPIA will also discuss their plans for a mentorship program with graduate students and alumni. 

Founded this summer, Young Black Professionals in International Affairs is a student organization committed to enhancing African and African diaspora (African-American, Afro-Latinx, Afro-Caribbean) perspectives, conversation, participation, and scholarship in both the Elliott School of International Affairs and the field of international relations overall -- through mentorship, professional & academic development, and community. Beyond this event, you can learn more about the organization and how to get involved through their Linktree page.

We hope to see you there!
