CELEBRATING ENGAGEMENT, INSIGHT, AND INTERNATIONAL ACTION
The Global Impact Award of the Cleveland Council on World Affairs recognizes distinguished individuals whose leadership has led to greater understanding and cooperation among communities and countries around the world. Each year the council will select a Brooks Emeny Distinguished Speaker who will deliver keynote address and receive the Global Impact Award. The speech highlights a night of fine dining and policy dialogue. Global Impact Award is the Council’s signature event. Proceeds from this event support the programs of the Council.
