Plans and Project Ideas

Winter weather did not prevent fellowship gatherings in Chicago, Washington and New York in February and the Conversation on Copenhagen went ahead in the nick of time before Manhattan was partially shut down by a snow storm. 

Looking forward, watch for networking and lecture dates in New England, the northeast, the southeast, north central, and southern California.  From a project perspective, initiatives are in development which will draw on the diverse skill sets of the global fellowship and offer opportunities for multidisciplinary collaboration and transatlantic engagement.  Fellows have stepped forward with their own ideas and will be looking for support to  help make them a reality. Topics include:

·         Nutrition, health and childhood obesity

·         National security, including energy and food security

·         Education and keeping up with technological change

·         Preventing another economic meltdown

·         Promoting creativity and strategic thinking at every stage of life

·         Improving agriculture and water supply in Kenya

There are potentially many “BIG Projects” out there if only we can make the right connections. Visit the American coffee house for more information.
