The OACFR is an official chapter of the American Committees on Foreign Relations (ACFR). ACFR was founded on the proposition that American foreign policy depends ultimately upon the strength of the public consent that underlies it. Founded in 2002, the mission of the OACFR is to open a dialogue between local and regional civic leaders in the Orlando Area and U.S. foreign policy makers.
Invited speakers include U.S. and international experts including world-class diplomats, ambassadors, respected international scholars, and major military leaders to Central Florida to discuss foreign affairs topics of current interest during our monthly meetings. After each meeting, members then engage in extended questions-and-answer dialogues.
