Strategic Plan, 2021-2023

We are an alumni association with a missionto continue and extend the Fulbright tradition of education, advocacy and service. Our Strategic Plan will advance this updated mission by focusing on three important goals:

  1. Build community among members
  2. Strengthen the Fulbright Program
  3. Improve and sustain the organization’s finances

In achieving these goals as a community, the Association will…

  • Offer programs with a greater focus on global affairs
  • Take fuller advantage of digital platforms to deliver content
  • Become more outward-facing, focused on community service
  • Engage a larger and more diverse membership
  • Speak to Congress more effectively to ensure the future of Fulbright
  • Offer trips to connect with under-represented communities and international Fulbrighters when conditions permit

How will we do this? Here are some highlights:

1

Build community among members

  • Support and grow our chapter network with flexible tools
  • Encourage chapters and individuals to start discussion groups on global affairs
  • Offer a new webinar series, the Fulbright Forum, on international issues
  • Pilot a mentoring program to support young professionals
  • Connect with international alumni during Fulbright trip when conditions permit

We will report to our members and supporters regularly on our progress, but we will only succeed as a community with your help, volunteerism, membership, and donations. Contact us at info@fulbright.org with questions or suggestions, and/or explore this website to see how you can get involved.
