My most
memorable experience with The International Center thus far has been the
opportunity to meet and escort an international delegate around
Indianapolis. The delegate that I spent the day with was Jeroen Jansen, a Policy
Director from Curacao. Curacao is an island just off the coast of Venezuela. I
was afforded this opportunity through The Center’s International Visitor
Leadership Program (IVLP). This is an initiative of the U.S. Department of
State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and its goal is to bring
distinguished international individuals to the United States to meet with their
international colleagues.
