[edit] Future pathways
On Sunday, 3 December 2006, we held an Open Conference to discuss "Our Future Pathways" for the Greater New York Chapter of the Fulbright Association. About 40 alumni from the New York area attended. In keeping with the philosophy of the Open Conference technique, all of the topics were created by the attendees, then breakout sessions ensued in which action steps were planned.
You can check out the notes from the conference and our action plans.

[edit] Chapter info
The Greater New York Chapter of the Fulbright Association draws from the diverse Fulbright alumni community based in the five boroughs of metropolitan New York City, and with over 400 members, is the second largest of the U.S. Chapters. The Chapter is both privileged and challenged by its proximity to the vast international cultural and intellectual resources of New York, Fulbright alumni, and visiting scholars. Activities are usually held in partnership with secondary and tertiary educational institutions, multilateral governmental organizations, civic institutions, NGOs and cultural entities.
