Eurasia Foundation’s Young Professionals Network (YPN) program identifies emerging Eurasia specialists in the Washington, DC metropolitan area who share EF’s commitment to international engagement and connects them with more established professionals from a variety of fields. YPN was created to honor EF’s late board chair Sarah Carey, who was an indispensable advisor to young people interested in the Eurasia region.

Highlights of past YPN events include meeting former Kyrgyz President Roza Otunbayeva and special access to television hosts Vladimir Pozner and Phil Donahue. As part of the program’s series of intimate breakfast briefings and lunches, members of YPN have interacted with influential Eurasia experts including Ambassador Thomas Pickering, Dr. Fiona Hill, Thomas de Waal, Christian Caryl, and Philip Shishkin, among others.
