In a two part presentation, recent Fulbright returnee and MIIS alumna Lacey Raak will discuss her research on sustainable development in Indonesia and give an “insiders perspective” of the Fulbright experience.
The first part of the presentation will focus on the research project. Research was completed in Jakarta and Balikpapan Indonesia where she evaluated the National Sustainable Development Strategy and how that translated down to the local and provincial levels. The second part of the presentation will focus on often frustrating, but ultimately rewarding, Fulbright application process and what to expect when you arrive in country.
