Program Description

Event Details

Great Decisions is America's largest discussion program on world affairs. The program model involves reading the Great Decisions Briefing book, watching the video series, and meeting in a discussion group to talk about the most critical global issues facing America today. Each year, eight topics are chosen by a panel of experts. 

Program Speaker: Dr. David Scott

The 2015 Paris Agreement established a UN-sponsored framework for negotiations on climate change and global warming. In subsequent COP meetings, experts and political leaders have come together seeking common cause for this growing global crisis. What is the future of these efforts, and what have they yielded? What is the U.S. role in fostering cooperation on climate change? In a divided country, what are the possible futures for American policy leadership?
