GMF - The German Marshall Fund of the United States - Strengthening Transatlantic Cooperation

The week of March 4, the spring cohort of 2013’s European and American Marshall Memorial Fellows (MMF) were in Washington, DC to begin their fellowships.

GMF took great pleasure in hosting an alumni dinner in Los Angeles on January 16, 2013. GMF President Craig Kennedy, Senior Director for Foreign and Security Policy Ian Lesser, and Transatlantic Leadership Initiatives Director Kevin Cottrell (MMF ’08) traveled to California to speak with MMF alumni and learn of the issues and activities they are working to advance on the west coast.

On December 2, 2012, The German Marshall Fund of the United States’ Transatlantic Leadership Initiatives Team capped off their biannual European Partners and Coordinators Meeting with a reception at the U.S. Ambassador’s Residence in Madrid, Spain.

On November 21, 2012, Czech Marshall Memorial Fellowship (MMF) alumni gathered for a dinner at U Modré Kachničky in Prague, Czech Republic, to welcome two newly selected fellows who will travel to the United States in 2013.

To mark the 30th anniversary of GMF’s Marshall Memorial Fellowship Program, on Monday, November 19, 2012 GMF’s Berlin office hosted a reception at the State Representation of Rhineland-Palatinate to the Federal Government. The event was well-attended by local MMF alumni, notable figures from Berlin’s policy-making community, and GMF staff from both sides of the Atlantic.
