SUMMARY:Innovation Triangle: USA-Germany-Israel

SUMMARY:From Brexit to Trump
DESCRIPTION:Nigel Farage led the campaign that won the June 2016 referendum on Great Britain’s membership in the European Union. A member of the European Parliament\, Farage told the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC)\, “We’ve got some very exciting elections coming up in the Netherlands\, in France\, in Germany.” His view is that with Brexit the people of the United Kingdom will regain control of their destiny. For Farage\, 2016 was the start of a global political revolution\, with a direct connection between Brexit and the election of Donald Trump. \nFarage enjoys being an incendiary political leader and his talk at the Commerce Club is likely to see fireworks. This must attend program will open a window into the thinking of the populist/nationalist movement that is ascendant in the United Kingdom and the United States. \nThe council is non-partisan\, and the speaker’s views do not necessarily reflect our own. We welcome the opportunity to be a platform where major global issues can be discussed in a calm atmosphere of mutual respect.

SUMMARY:The World and the City in the 21st Century - International Center Global Presentation Series at Georgia State University
DESCRIPTION:The World and the City in the 21st Century \nPresented by Dr. Jan Nijman\nDirector\, Urban Studies Institute\nAndrew Young School of Policy Studies\nGeorgia State University \nGlobal and urban research once were positioned at opposite ends of a scalar spectrum but now they are increasingly entwined. Major urban regions form the building blocks of a global economy (and culture) that is ever more integrated. Understanding cities requires an understanding of global processes\, and vice versa. Dr. Nijman will reflects on his international research experience in Amsterdam\, Miami\, Mumbai and Hong Kong\, and discusses where Atlanta fits in the work at the new Institute. \nInterviewed by Dr. Mary Beth Walker\nDean\, Andrew Young School of Policy Studies\nGeorgia State University

SUMMARY:1st Annual Emerging Global Issues Forum: Forced Migration \, Immigration & Security
DESCRIPTION:The Emerging Global Issues Forum on Forced Migration\, Immigration\, and Security will explore the causes\, consequences and policy responses to the rapid increases in forced migration and refugee movements around the world.
