Episode 55: Foreign Policy Education for all Americans: an interview with Elizabeth Shackleford

In April 2022, The Cleveland Council on World Affairs had the opportunity to speak with Elizabeth Shackleford, a former U.S. Foreign Service Officer and now senior fellow on U.S. foreign policy at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. In this interview with CCWA, she reflects on the importance of foreign policy education and discourse in the everyday lives of all Americans. She also shares invaluable advice on developing mentoring relationships and a surprising recipe from Somalia for bananas on spaghetti.
