Building global connections between the people of Utah and other nations one handshake at a time.

About us

Since 1967, the Utah Global Diplomacy has been a qualified 501-c-3 corporation whose mission is to promote respect and understanding between the people of Utah and other nations. We believe in the concept of Citizen Diplomacy - the concept that as citizens we have the right - even the responsibility - to help shape U.S. foreign relations "one handshake at a time." Our flagship program is the International Visitor Leadership Program administered by the U.S. Department of State. In addition, Utah Global Diplomacy is the Utah chapter of the World Affairs Councils of America. Please visit our website at www.utahglobaldiplomacy.org.

This initiative focuses on sharing best practices for preventing gender-based violence, identifying and prosecuting abuse, and providing victim support. Our guests will explore how economic opportunities, education, and leadership can combat violence and learn about outreach efforts that promote women's rights and combat trafficking. Our esteemed visitors hail from Algeria, Benin, Central African Republic, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cote d’Ivoire, Djibouti, Guinea, Kenya, Mauritania, Mozambique, Nigeria, Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Sao Tome and Principe, Senegal, and Zimbabwe.

    ✨ Introducing DiplomaSeagull! ✨ Who is DiplomaSeagull? DiplomaSeagull is Utah Global Diplomacy's new mascot, representing the spirit of global connection and understanding. The seagull, a symbol of Utah, plays on the pun of “diplomacy” and “seagull,” embodying our mission of bridging cultures and promoting international goodwill. Citizen diplomacy is our DiplomaSeagull’s favorite thing! With two new international exchanges landing in Salt Lake City this weekend, we have a lot of citizen diplomacy going on! 🤝 Citizen diplomacy is when everyday people shape foreign relations, or in other words, meet and socialize with visitors from other countries. Many people here in Utah meet with our international visitors as professional resources, dinner hosts, and more. 🙌 Want to get involved? Check out our website for ways to engage and become a citizen diplomat today! 🌎 #utahglobaldiplomacy #diplomaseagull #seagull #utah #utahdiplomacy #citizendiplomacy

    We at Utah Global Diplomacy are appalled by the assassination attempt against former President Trump and the death of Corey Comperatore, who was in attendance at the rally over the weekend.   Violence has no place in our political system; our democracy relies on our addressing our differences through peaceful means. That is the work of diplomacy, and this is what we at Utah Global Diplomacy strive to accomplish every single day.    As we work to heal political divisions in our country, I am grateful to our broader community of citizen diplomats who bring our community together through the power of exchange and global and cultural education. I am proud to lead Utah Global Diplomacy, which works endlessly to build a bigger table where everyone is invited to join us.    Please remember that our common humanity is what unites us.

    President & CEO

    Full disclosure: I like hosting our symposium series because I get to meet and hang out with some of the most dynamic visionaries in these fields. For this reason, I want to give shoutouts to our guest speakers for our Cutting Through the Noise, Marketing Masterclass Symposium. Starting with Andrew Winston & Emily Bell McCormick. Andrew, CEO of Nomolos Creative is a dynamic CEO and visionary with a passion for empowering companies to articulate their narratives in innovative ways. Hailing from Utah, Andrew's journey in the creative realm spans over 15 years, evolving from a deep-seated appreciation for the arts to a fervent embrace of the digital landscape. He thrives on leveraging his expertise to guide businesses in effectively communicating their brand stories. And honestly, who doesn't adore the tenacity and passion of Emily, founder and president of The Policy Project. Prior to her venture into the world of policy, Emily founded and sold a clothing company (Shabby Apple), was an editor and occasional host of Utah's NBC morning show, KSL Studio 5, and worked as a communication strategy consultant in a myriad of industries including policy, NGOs, REITs, tech, and fashion. Trust me when I say, you don't want to miss this event. Make sure to register.
