The Davoudi Emerging Leaders Lecture Series was exclusive to members of the Roundtable Young Professionals and was held once per month from January through May 2021. Each event in the series featured a conversation about public policy fundamentals, practical information on working in the public policy sphere, and the charge and impact of the Baker Institute itself.
At the first event, Baker Institute Director Ambassador Edward Djerejian visited with former foreign service officer and RYP member Milessa Lowrie to discuss his career in diplomacy and analyze the foreign policy challenges facing the incoming Biden administration. Following their discussion, attendees were invited to an interactive Q&A session.
The Baker Institute thanks Haydeh and Ali Davoudi for supporting these important conversations. Click here for a list of other webinars in the series.
