Evaghelia Kamariotou F23 came to Fletcher after 15 years in the Greek Foreign Service.
“At this stage in my career as a diplomat, applying to Fletcher was a natural choice. It was the right time for me to broaden my knowledge and keep abreast of new developments in international relations. After a very Eurocentric professional life, the diversity that I encounter at Fletcher makes this academic experience unique and thrilling. Interacting with students and professionals from all around the world is enriching. Fletcher was the best place for me to acquire a global vision on international relations shaped outside Europe and reconsider my experience so far”.
“Attending the Arctic Circle Assembly in Reykjavik was one of my most memorable experiences. Being part of the team representing the school at the conference was an honor and a pleasure. It was both a unique team-building experience and an invaluable opportunity to dive deep into the largely unknown and misconceived world of the Arctic. Moreover, our professor was instrumental in helping us make the most of this conference by securing bilateral meetings with high profile officials and influential businesspeople in this region of the world.”
