2021 Virtual Annual Meeting

Our 2021 annual meeting, held as a Zoom Webinar, spanned a three day period -- August 17 to August 19. 

Following a general business meeting, which included comments from Glenn Blumhorst, NPCA President, we heard from four featured speakers:

Professor Phil Stevens (Nigeria 7) -- Africa's Greatest Mystery: The Stone Images of Esie, Nigeria
Ambassador John Campbell -- Nigeria and the Nation State:  Rethinking Diplomacy with the Postcolonial World
Dr. Thandi Onami -- Nigeria: A Leading Role in Driving Innovation in Infectious Disease Research and Pandemic Preparedness
Dr. Gerald Durley (Nigeria 12) -- Systemic Racism and the U.S. Peace Corps

The meeting ended with an open Zoom session in which more than fifty RPCVs joined a lively mass reunion with greetings and reminiscences all around.
