    ANNUAL REPORT 2020 BRINGING THE WORLD TO VERMONT AND VERMONT TO THE WORLD A MESSAGE FROM VCWA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Resilient is the one word that comes to mind when I think of the Vermont Council on World Affairs. As we packed our offices in March and went remote I had the opportunity to sort through files spanning the last 69 years of our existence. The documents I poured over told the story of the VCWA’s long history of promoting awareness and understanding of the world and its people. The VCWA has positioned ourselves in the community as a place for civil discourse where we can discuss subject matter that is critical to us all: the state of diplomacy, nuclear negotiations, trade with China, and more. Our virtual programming has allowed us to overcome the limits posed by geography so that members anywhere in the world can participate in the activities of the organization. American lives and livelihoods are affected by a world in which just about everything flows across borders. As our programs and speaker series turned virtual we were able to bring an array of expert presenters into homes across Vermont. This was demonstrated most notably through our Engage the World conference through a variety of moderators, hosts, and speakers. From Ambassadors in Japan and Mexico, authors of newly released books, a Russian filmmaker, and a Ugandan dance instructor we truly were able to bring the world right to Vermonter’s living rooms. As we look toward next year, we are thinking strategically about how to best serve our membership.
