Phoenix Committee on Foreign Relations

PCFR is made up of more than 400 members with an international interest in the Phoenix metropolitan area. For more than 40 years, PCFR has welcomed a variety of distinguished guests; U.S. and foreign ambassadors, cabinet ministers, policy-makers, economists, analysts, journalists, authors, renowned educators and heads of state. During the 21-22 season, PCFR hosted over 50 renowned speaker programs. This provides our members and community with intriguing and intellectually challenging, interactive experiences as they participate in the Q&A following the speakers’ remarks. Through these programmatic learning opportunities, we strive to raise the level of international awareness in both public and private sectors in Arizona because of our belief that unbiased information leads to improved policy making.
