International Speakers Bureau
The International Speakers Bureau provides a forum for cross-cultural communication between international students and local citizens. The ISB program involves students from around the world who are interested in making presentations about aspects of their countries, cultures and languages. Topics range from cultural traditions, role of women in society, global issues and concerns and more. Student participants often utilize visual aids, artifacts, music, and cooking demonstrations in their cultural lessons. All presenters are students at the University of Evansville who have volunteered to participate in the International Speakers Bureau program.
Who Can Benefit?
- School groups in the tri-State studying about a particular country or region, its cultural traditions, language and peoples, and global issues
- Community organizations with interests in the cultural heritage, cuisine and customs of foreign countries, or global issues and concerns affecting people around the world. Anyone interested in participating in the International Speakers Bureau should contact the Office of International Student Engagement at 812-488-2279 or Emily Fiedler.
