The Presidential Elections will take place in the United States on November 3, 2020. the U.S. Embassy to Italy and the American Corner Trieste propose the U.S: ELECTION VIRTUAL SPEAKER SERIES on Zoom.
In recent months, the Cultural Office of the U.S. Embassy to Italy has organized a series of virtual conferences on various themes with U.S. Diplomats in Italy as speakers. The “Virtual Mission Speaker Program” has been an excellent way to continue the out-reach of the embassy.
In the past, U.S. diplomats traveled around Italy and made in person presentations. For the moment the “Mission Speaker Program” will take place only in the virtual mode. The US Embassy to Italy views this as a tremendous opportunity to interact with people all over Italy, especially in areas that in the past were difficult to visit for logistical reasons.
Lecture themes are about the United States of America. The meetings are held in English, with support of a Power Point Presentation on the Zoom platform. The speaker presents for 30 minutes then is available to answer questions.
In the future, there we hope to offer more Virtual Mission Speakers.
