Today's meeting speaker presented via Zoom and the program was made available across the district. Thank you to Elinor who arranged to have Dr. Naazneen Barma, speak on the subject of "Global to Local Challenges and The Prospects For Peace". Dr. Barma is the founding Director of the Doug and Mary Scrivner Institute of Public Policy, Scrivner Chair of Public Policy, and Associate Professor at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver. She is also one of the founders and a co-director of Bridging the Gap, an initiative devoted to enhancing the policy impact of contemporary international affairs scholarship. This presentation was very timely and relevant, given the wars currently raging in Ukraine and Gaza and Rotary's emphasis on promoting peace in the world.
