26th Annual Women Ambassadors Conference


The Women Ambassadors Conference is an annual conference organized by faculty and students of Howard University in conjunction with the Women Ambassadors Foundation, a not-for-profit 501 C 3 organization.
The goal of the Annual Women Ambassadors Conference is three-fold: to celebrate the work of women in diplomacy and related fields; to provide role models to students, particularly students from constituencies that are less represented in the diplomatic field; to inform students from various universities around the globe and the general public about major issues in international affairs.

The Annual Women Ambassadors Conference has become, over the years, a true institution in the Washington DC diplomatic landscape. In 2022, the 26th Annual Women Ambassadors Conference will take place on Thursday March 31, and on Friday April 1, online. Stay tuned on this website for the link to the 26th Annual Women Ambassadors Conference.
