Please join us for a conversation with Peace Corps Director Carol Spahn on the future of the Peace Corps and its role in the Indo-Pacific. The event will take place on Monday, November 25th, from 9:00 am to 10:00 am EST.
President John F. Kennedy founded the Peace Corps in 1961 to foster global peace and friendship through international service. It now faces a new and evolving operating environment shaped by global challenges such as climate change, health crises, and a shifting geopolitical landscape. Director Spahn will discuss how the Peace Corps has reinvented its approach and share insights on its current initiatives in the Indo-Pacific.
This event will feature opening remarks by CSIS President and CEO Dr. John Hamre. Director Spahn will then present opening remarks, followed by a fireside chat between Director Spahn and Dr. Charles Edel.
