Outreach
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is committed to reaching out to different constituencies so that they better understand the world and the foreign policy choices facing the United States and other governments. CFR is devoting more time and energy to connecting with and serving as a resource for groups of interested citizens whose voices are increasingly important to the national foreign policy debate. These constituencies include educators and students; religious and congregational leaders; state and local officials; and nonprofit, civic, and community leaders.
- Educators: CFR's Academic Initiative seeks to serve as a valuable resource for the academic community by connecting educators and students at the college and graduate level with CFR's research and nonpartisan analysis. CFR programming includes a bimonthly interactive Academic Conference Call series for students, access to webcasts of CFR meetings, student briefings with a CFR fellow at CFR's New York headquarters and Washington, DC, office, online Academic Modules built around CFR publications, and other resources.
