Description
Established in 1949, the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to informing and engaging people of all ages on matters of national and international significance. To this end, it provides education, discourse and information resources to audiences throughout the Greater Philadelphia region, including individual and corporate members, students and teachers, and the general public. For nearly 60 years, the Council has focused on creating the engaged electorate on which a great democracy depends. In the process, the Council has become one of the preeminent such organizations in America, with a podium ranked among the top ten in the nation, and a nationally acclaimed education program that has served over one million middle school and high school students since its inception, and continues to directly reach over 2,600 students in 200 schools each year.
