The Council on Foreign Relations offers two webinar series: Global Affairs Expert Webinars and Higher Education Webinars. The Global Affairs Expert Webinar series, formerly “CFR Academic Webinars,” provides a forum for college and university students and educators to interact with CFR fellows and other experts on foreign policy topics. A second series, CFR Higher Education Webinars, offers timely conversations for college and university leaders, administrators, and professors on issues impacting higher education. These sessions showcase insights from CFR fellows and thought leaders, facilitating informed discourse within the academic community.
