Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens (’89) Memorial Symposium
April 1 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
We will gather to hear from some of Ambassador Stevens’ friends and peers, to reflect on Ambassador Stevens’ remarkable career and his dedication to diplomacy, international relations, and the rule of law, and to discuss current events and a path forward in these challenging times. The symposium will feature distinguished speakers and panelists who will discuss relevant topics related to his work and its enduring impact.
This event offers a valuable opportunity to engage with leading experts, scholars, and practitioners in the fields of law and international affairs in the Middle East and North Africa region The program will be moderated by UCLSF professor Moria Paz, and feature brief presentations and dialogue between Prof. Daniel Zoughbie, Associate Project Scientist at the Institute of International Studies at UC Berkeley, and Peter Bartu from the UCB Department of Global Studies, an expert and advisor in Political Transitions and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.
We anticipate a thoughtful and informative program, and we hope you will join us in commemorating Ambassador Stevens’ contributions, and channeling his energy and diplomatic skill in focusing on a “people first” mode of advocacy.
