GMF alumni from the Eastern Partnership region (EaP), the EU, and the United States gathered on November 22 in Tbilisi, Georgia. The event aimed to highlight the diversity and transformational effect that 42 years of GMF’s leadership programs have had on emerging leaders on both sides of the Atlantic. This forum was also a moment to celebrate the EaP community of leaders that GMF has fostered over the last seven years and honor the German government’s support, through the KfW development bank, that made these programs possible.
