Global Lunch Forums

glf

Join international visitors for briefings and conversation over lunch. Meet leaders in a variety of fields from all over the world for a lunchtime dialogue. Here everyone has a chance to share opinions about local and international issues. Participants hear first-hand accounts of current events abroad from distinguished guests and have the chance to engage in discussion.

GCIV Global Lunch Forums (GLFs) are a great way for busy professionals to interact with fascinating international visitors coming to Atlanta. These visitors are participants in the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program. Over lunch, the visitors will tell you about their work in their respective countries, and you will have an opportunity to engage in open discussion with people who are leaders in their fields from around the world. Global Lunch Forums are announced in the monthly GCIV e-newsletter.
