Charlotte Global at UNC Charlotte coordinates a local community lecture series annually. The Charlotte Great Decisions Lecture Series consists of five weekly sessions and is an opportunity for citizens to meet, discuss and learn about some of the issues facing our world. Each week a local expert from UNC Charlotte provides additional perspective on the topic of interest and answers questions regarding the information presented in the Briefing Book and through the lecture. They may include their own research related to the topic.
All lectures will be held in a hybrid format (virtual or in person) from January 28- March 4th, 6:30 pm – 8 pm in classroom 1104 on the 11th floor at the UNC Charlotte Dubois Center in Uptown Charlotte, 320 E. 9th Street, Charlotte, 28202.
