Global Dialogues is an international, cross-cultural, and virtual lecture series. Similar to CEA's practice at our onsite locations, this lecture series invites distinguished scholars, intellectuals, professionals, and entrepreneurs to present and discuss themes and topics with connections to our courses. They are open to CEA's student body, our US university partners, and colleagues from our international communities. This series presents the unique opportunity to unite guests from across our sites within one virtual and global environment, facilitating cross-cultural and comparative exchange. Though speakers will address subjects of global interest, most themes and topics will be approached through a local lens, offering exposure to perspectives otherwise difficult to find.
