The 8th Annual, 1st Virtual
ONE WORLD Gala
During 2020, the World Affairs Council of Cincinnati & NKY has managed to pivot to virtual learning opportunities for students and teachers; innovate with virtual exchanges; and move quickly to continue to have monthly webinars with foreign affairs speakers. Despite the uncertainty, we remain committed to serving our community and helping to diminish boundaries. We served over 5,000 students in 2020 with some in-person, mostly online learning opportunities.
In 2021, in whatever way we can safely accomplish it, the Council is going to continue creating international connections, raising awareness on imperative global topics, and developing empathy within students through creating an online learning platform.
We are excited to bring to you the eighth annual ONE WORLD Gala, first virtual experience in 2021. As our only fundraiser during the year, we need your support to continue increasing students’ global skills for our world.
Play your part in these highly anticipated events that support ongoing educational and cultural programs designed to help students in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky live, work, and lead globally.
