Los Angeles World Affairs Council Signature Travel Program!
The Los Angeles World Affairs Council’s Signature Travel Program isn’t your average getaway—it’s a curated global experience designed for the internationally curious. Join fellow delegates as we travel to key destinations around the world, gaining behind-the-scenes access to top diplomats, government officials, and global changemakers. From private briefings on foreign policy to high-level conversations on America’s evolving role in international affairs, this is your chance to step into the room where it happens—and represent LAWAC as a true citizen ambassador.
Not only do we bring global conversations to Los Angeles, through the travel program, we also bring Los Angeles to the world.Â
A designated Council staff person accompanies each tour to assist with logistics, customer services, and ensuring our members have a smooth experience from the time they sign up for the tour to when they land back home after. Having Council members travel together means that you will have the chance to meet globally-minded people from your area, who can share this experience with you during and after your travels. We look forward to traveling with you!
