2 018 Annual Report “Each and every successful exchange helps our countries to learn about and understand one another. Every contact and friendship forms a link in the chain of international relations. Senator Fulbright firmly believed in such citizen diplomacy – in the idea that it is not only politicians and diplomats who foster peace, but above all citizens who establish and maintain friendly relations with people in other countries." — Chancellor 2017 Annual Report | 1 From the President

Dear Fulbrighters and Friends,

2018 was a wonderful anniversary year for Fulbright, as many countries marked the beginnings of the at their embassies in Washington DC and around the world. We joined them in this celebratory spirit, inspired to do all we can to strengthen the program and its legacy.

Advocacy was an important focus in 2018, with advocacy days on March 21 and May 24. We were successful in convincing Congress to maintain full support for the Fulbright program and in countering calls to nearly delete the program from the US Federal budget. Congratulations and thanks go to Advocacy Chairs Max Burns and Bruce Fowler, as well as our office in DC, for leading these essential activities.

Our Travel Task Force continues to provide dedicated leadership for the Travel Program which enhances the visibility of the Association and introduces us to new members. Thanks to Mary Stanton for her truly outstanding work!

We took an important initiative in 2018 to reconnect with our past. A visit to our archives led by Phil Rakita provided the names of all past board members, allowing past president Nancy Neill to create a committee of past presidents to renew their participation. Thank you, Phil and Nancy!

Our Annual Conference in Puebla Mexico was the highlight of the year. The effort was led by DeDe Long, for which the Association is grateful. We also thank our gracious and helpful Mexican host Hazel Blackmore at the Fulbright Commission in Mexico City. Puebla was a spectacularly wonderful venue.

The Association strengthened its fundraising efforts this year. We organized “salons” across the country to support Fulbright. These activities were transformative, making it possible to build our programs at the national and international level. Thanks to John Bader for his inspiring leadership in these efforts.

The Association’s Finance committee has maintained a prudent and productive investment stance, minimizing investment costs and maximizing returns. Special congratulations go to our Finance Chair Phil Rakita, who continued the productive path taken by Dolores Rinke. Members should rest assured that our finances are in excellent hands.

Let me conclude by thanking you for your engagement with the Fulbright Association. Whether you lead a chapter, attend events as an active member, sign a petition, visit congressional offices, present (or dance!) at our conferences, or make the Association a philanthropic priority, we are grateful to you.

And thanks to all our wonderful current and past board members and to our staff in Washington who are essential for this Association to flourish.

Warmly,

Manfred Philipp, Ph.D. Fulbright to Portugal (2005) and Nepal (2012-13) President 2 | Fulbright Association From the Executive Director

Dear Fulbright Community,

As I sat in packed audience at a beautiful venue in Berlin, , watching Chancellor Angela Merkel accept the Fulbright Prize, I kept thinking, “How did we do this?” Hosting a world-class event, covered by 120 journalists, viewed online around the world, and honoring a global leader was a heady moment for the Fulbright Association. One former board member called it the Association’s greatest accomplishment.

So how did we do it? We built on a 25-year tradition of awarding the Prize to extraordinary people, beginning with and including , , , Vaclev Havel, and Bill and Melinda Gates. The gravity of this tradition became clear to Chancellor Merkel as she intently watched a video highlighting all our laureates.

We relied on our volunteer community, starting with the International Selection Committee chaired by Mary Ellen Heian Schmider. We gathered the support of key sponsors, such as University of Maryland University College—who contributed to the live stream broadcast.

We coordinated with the German Chancellery and other partners like the Fulbright Commission in Berlin. We took fuller advantage of the moment to raise the profile of the Fulbright through a sophisticated public relations campaign involving press relations and social media. And we all worked very hard to welcome a global audience and to manage the event smoothly.

In short, we built on our strengths, engaged our volunteers and donors, partnered effectively, connected to wider audiences, and worked hard to deliver a program with impact. I am pleased to report that 2018 was filled with many successes because, as a community, we followed that recipe time and again.

This annual report offers many other highlights based on that recipe. They include advocacy campaigns that resisted destructive budget cuts to the Program, hundreds of chapter events, a thrilling conference in Mexico, and an expanding commitment to Fulbright in the Classroom. We deepened our commitment to build a strong organization, equipped for the future, through initiatives like the Fulbright Census that is locating all American Fulbrighters.

You are a vital part of our community and these successes. We are stronger when we stand together on Capitol Hill, when we connect to each other through chapters, and when we financially support our innovative programming. Thank you for all you do for Fulbright and please stay in touch.

All the best,

John B. Bader, Ph.D. Fulbright to India (1985-86) Executive Director

2018 Annual Report | 7 Programs Travel

Vietnam In partnership with Friends for Asia, our Service Corps participants traveled to Hanoi in April to assist with several volunteer projects. Splitting into two groups, one focused on English instruction to elementary students, and the other volunteered at Friendship Village, a residential facility providing medical care, physical therapy, and vocational training to children and veterans affected by Agent Orange. Participants also visited famous sites like the Hoa Lo Prison and Hanoi’s History Museum. UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as Halong Bay and Trang An were explored in-between volunteering time. They had time to network and share experiences with local Fulbrighters in Hanoi, where the program’s message of intercultural understanding and friendship is especially important with the aftermath of the war still present to this day. Albania, Macedonia, & Greece The first 2018 Fulbright Association Travel Program excursion introduced nine alumni members to these three, culture-rich countries. Our participants, in partnership with Cultural Heritage without Borders (CHwB), interacted with local communities. At this year’s camp in Kruja, they focused on traditional Albania arts and crafts. In true Fulbright fashion, these crafts workshops, along with English language studies, help bring together students from all over the area. The trip concluded with a meeting with local Fulbright alumni in Thessaloniki, Greece. Malawi Returning in July for a second Service Corps Trip to Malawi, eleven participants met in Lilongwe City to partner with nonprofit organization LEAD SEA (Leadership for Environment and Development in Southern and Eastern Africa) to promote sustainability, global health, and education initiatives. Participants were able to see the fruits of their labor from the growth of the trees planted during the previous year’s trip to Malawi in an effort to combat deforestation. It was a delight to reconnect with village leaders in Naphambo village. The team engaged with the community and met with school teachers and staff at the Kachitsa Community Based Child Care Centre in Salima, Malawi. Several travelers also had the experience of celebrating the Fourth of July at the United States Embassy in Malawi and met with U.S. Ambassador Virginia Palmer.

8 | Fulbright Association ▲ Mexico Thirty Fulbrighters and friends traveled for four days of cultural exploration, engagement and networking in Mexico, in conjunction with our annual conference in Puebla. Highlights included a visit to the ancient Mesoamerican city of Teotihuacan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which included a special meeting with lead researcher Dr. Sergio Gomez. Timing couldn’t have been better, as our participants were able to witness the splendor of celebrations for Day of the Dead, or Día de Muertos, including parades and processions of local parishioners to places of worship. Of course, no Fulbright Trip would be complete without opportunities to connect and share experiences with local Fulbright alumni, which occurred at an evening networking reception where the group met current Fulbrighters in Mexico.

TEDxFulbright

TEDx has been thrilled to receiving more proposals to expand the series of TEDxFulbright events globally.

Advocacy

"One of the important ways of exercising soft power is public diplomacy. Within the public diplomacy realm, you can’t find a program that is more critical, more successful or more respected than the Fulbright Program.” — Congressman John P. Sarbanes, The Washington P ost

Fulbright alumni gather on Capitol Hill to advocate in Washington, DC

The future of the Fulbright Program continued to hang in the balance in 2018. The Administration once again proposed a devastating budget cut, this time at 71%, having proposed a 47% cut the year before. The Fulbright has been a beacon of hope for more than 70 years, and our community once again had to Stand for Fulbright:

■■ Two Advocacy Days – We covered Capitol Hill in March and April, making three trips in eight months, dating back to 2017

■■ Grassroots Campaign – We integrated our March visit with An Advocacy Team meets with Congressman John Sarbanes (D-MD 3rd District), a Fulbright Scholar to Greece and a strong many local visits, organized by chapters supporter of the Program ■■ Petition and Write-In – The March campaign included a petition signed by over 8,000 Fulbrighters and contact by phone and mail to 94% of all House and Senate offices

■■ August Recess – More chapters organized visits to local congressional offices

■■ Chapter Leader Workshop – Held during the annual conference in Puebla, the workshop emphasized the role chapters can play in driving advocacy engagement

We did not learn until February of 2019, due to the government shutdown, that our efforts yielded strong funding for the Fulbright Program. The program received 13% boost in spending—an unprecedented increase—mainly due to absorbing an existing program. By standing together, the collective work of the alumni and various stakeholders averted the 71% cut and Congressman Phil Roe (R-TN 1st District) with Board member kept the program fully funded.
