ISH-DC’s Ambassadorial Dialogue Series welcomes prominent foreign Ambassadors who engage in off-the-record dialogues with resident scholars and guests. From its inception in the fall of 2015, a number of Ambassadors have participated in the Series often addressing complex and delicate international issues while sharing their experiences and expertise.
After the program, conversation continues during small dinners with the Ambassadors, corporate sponsors, and individual supporters.
We greatly appreciate the many embassies who have participated in the Dialogue Series.
