Professor Douglas Yates, AGS’s expert on African politics, and Larry Kilman, Associate Director of AGS and Assistant Professor of NGO Management, took part in the conference, organized by the NGO-UNESCO Liaison Committee on the theme, “Changing Minds, not the Climate: The Contribution of NGOs.” Professors Yates and Kilman were invited to participate by Marie-Claude Machon-Honoré, permanent representative to UNESCO for the International Federation of Business and Professional Women and a member of the Liaison Committee. The trio will meet later this month to discuss potential further collaboration. |
Two American Graduate School representatives participated on Thursday (7 December) in the 8th International Forum of NGOs at UNESCO headquarters in Paris, which was dedicated to non-governmental response to climate change.

As citizens of the world community, AGSers share a deep will to improve international state of affairs. This drive for change translates into prescriptive discussion between students and teachers, not simply criticism. I most admire this quality about AGS and know that because we have the will to improve the system, we are the way for change.
