Karl Dean on the importance of global affairs programs

Contribute Now

“An area I think is very important is … for people of Nashville, particularly our young people, to understand the world, to understand other cultures … which makes me very excited about the Tennessee World Affairs Council … they do a great job connecting this city to the world … Nashville’s future in terms of business, in terms of its future growth, is going to depend upon Nashville being a world city. We have increasingly become a city that is a center for international business and that is only going to continue. So, to adequately prepare ourselves, our city and especially our children for the future I would ask you to support the Tennessee World Affairs Council.”

— Karl Dean, former Mayor of Nashville and Chairman TNWAC
