A Letter from the President

Dear Friends, 

As 2016 draws to a close, American Friends of Bucerius would like to wish you a happy holiday, and to take a moment to reflect on the past year. 

It has been a tumultuous time for the global community, with many developments and distinct shifts in international affairs. We have had the pleasure of hearing from experts on these various topics over the past year, and engaged in lively conversations with all of our network members.  

We were also very happy to continue our support of law students and guest lecturers pursuing international education through the Bucerius Global Legacy Fund, where we were able to grant over $40,000 in scholarships and fellowships. I hope you will consider joining us in our 2017 efforts by donating to the Fund and helping us award more scholarships than ever. If you would like to donate, please click here.  

We at American Friends of Bucerius are grateful to have you as part of our community, and hope that you will continue to engage with us by keeping in touch and attending our programs. It is only with your help that we are able to achieve our goal of spreading innovative thinking and addressing the international issues we all are faced with.  

Best wishes, 

Nina Smidt
President
