Global New Orleans, a 501(c)3 nonprofit membership organization, fosters citizen diplomacy and cross-cultural understanding by serving as the local liaison for the US Department of State International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) and other exchange programs. When exchange participants come to New Orleans, Global New Orleans arranges for them to socialize with our members and to exchange ideas

with their professional counterparts, all while experiencing local culture. This is citizen diplomacy, ordinary citizens building extraordinary relationships “one handshake at a time”. Through citizen diplomacy, we can help shape US foreign relations and grow our community's global competency. To become a member and citizen diplomat, visit www.globalneworleans.org/membership

A little rain can't keep us away! A big thank you to all who braved the weather last week to join us at Old Road for coffee and conversation. Over coffee and pastries, international visitors from Japan and Poland met members of the Global New Orleans community for lively conversation. We were especially glad to host the event with our friends at the Japan Society of New Orleans.

Sometimes the simplest gatherings create the best opportunities to get to know one another. Thank you to everyone who helped make the morning so warm and welcoming.
