Programs

American Marshall Memorial Fellowship

IAC is the key North Carolina point of contact for the American Marshall Memorial Fellowship, a program of the German Marshall Fund of the United States. The American Marshall Memorial Fellowship (AMMF) provides a unique opportunity for young policy and opinion leaders from the United States to gain an in-depth understanding of societies, institutions and peoples across the Atlantic. During the three to four week traveling program, Fellows develop a broad knowledge of political, economic, cultural and social issues in their host countries through meetings with city officials, school teachers, police officers, government officials, business leaders, labor organizers, farmers, activists, religious leaders, academics and members of the community who open their homes to Fellows.
