Romania took hold of my heart in 2015 and since then has consumed my mind and soul. As with any genuine commitment, my relationship with this beautiful, complex country has grown and deepened over time as I have learned of its many tragedies, as well as its many triumphs. I have surrendered myself to Romania. [...] As I continue my Romanian journey, I marvel over the resiliency and fortitude of the people. I am fortunate to have developed close relationships, familial in many ways, with many Romanians. And I am eternally grateful to have been granted a Fulbright and honored to become part of this amazing community.
Welcoming the Newly Appointed Fulbright Ambassadors
On March 20, we had the pleasure of welcoming the newly appointed Romanian Fulbright Ambassadors to their first official meeting. The group includes thirteen ambassadors from various institutions across the Romania, selected to represent the Fulbright Program within their academic communities and professional networks.
The meeting provided an excellent platform for the ambassadors to connect, exchange ideas, and receive up-to-date program information and materials. Together, we discussed strategies and initiatives aligned with the Commission’s mission, setting the stage for impactful collaborations.
Fulbright Ambassadors play a key role in fostering the academic, scientific, and cultural exchanges offered through the Fulbright Program between Romania and the United States. By organizing events, leading information sessions, and supporting potential applicants, they help strengthen the ties between the two countries’ academic communities. Drawing from their own Fulbright experiences, they collaborate with fellow alumni to enhance the program’s visibility and impact. Through their dedication, Fulbright Ambassadors inspire the exchange of ideas and contribute to a dynamic academic and professional environment.
