The International Relations Commission (IRC) is once again hosting Great Decisions, America's largest discussion program on world affairs. The program is part of a partnership with the World Affairs Council of West Michigan. Great Decisions offers Holland-area residents access to diplomats, policy makers, think tank specialists, and journalists who lead conversations on some of the most pressing global issues of our time.
The series runs every Monday from February 6th through March 27th and features eight speakers on the topics listed here. Each presentation will be livestreamed on YouTube from 6:00pm-7:15pm. Holland area residents can purchase a discounted series pass for $30 at greatdecisions.cityofholland.com; the pass provides access to live presentations as well as recordings on previous topics. Half of the proceeds of each pass comes back to Holland to support the programs of the IRC.
