There’s no doubt that the next generation of global leaders face many grand challenges. Complex transnational crises like climate change, biosecurity and forced migration can be addressed by multifaceted approaches, but policymakers need expert research and innovative solutions to make informed decisions.
This semester, hundreds of Carolina undergraduate and graduate students stepped into the shoes of White House staffers and leading policy analysts to address some of the most pressing challenges facing the United States and world by preparing informative, concise and visually appealing policy briefs in the 2022 UNC Policy Brief Competition, supported by the Diplomacy Initiative.
Join us on April 22 for an awards ceremony featuring remarks by each of the six competition winners and the three Carolina alumni working in international affairs who served as judges. Each student winner will be presented with a certificate and an award of $500. This event is part of the 2022 Diplomacy Week.
