Armchair Discussion featuring

------------------------------------------------------------

Director of the Peace Corps

Moderated by

** Mark L. Schneider
------------------------------------------------------------

15th Director of the Peace Corps (1999-2001) and Senior Adviser, Americas Program and Human Rights Initiative at CSIS

Introduction by

** Kimberly Flowers
------------------------------------------------------------

Peace Corps Volunteer (Bulgaria, 1999-2001; Jamaica, 2004-2005) and Director, Global Food Security Project and Humanitarian Agenda at CSIS

For over 50 years, more than 230,000 Americans have volunteered with the Peace Corps in 141 countries to develop sustainable solutions in the sectors of agriculture, health, community economic development, education, environment, and youth in development. Dr. Olsen's experience, global outlook, and passion for the Peace Corps are indicative of a prosperous future for the agency. Empowered by the use of technology and innovative service models, Dr. Olsen is leading a call to lifelong service and dedication to the three goals of the Peace Corps.

Dr. Jody K. Olsen was sworn in as the Director of the Peace Corps in March of 2018. Dr. Olsen began her career as a Peace Corps Volunteer, serving in Tunisia from 1966-1968. She has since served the agency in multiple leadership positions—as Acting Director in 2009; Deputy Director from 2002-2009; Chief of Staff from 1989-1992; Regional Director, North Africa, Near East, Asia, Pacific from 1981-1984; and Country Director in Togo from 1979-1981.

Prior to returning to the Peace Corps in 2018, Dr. Olsen served as Visiting Professor at the University of Maryland-Baltimore School of Social Work and Director of the University's Center for Global Education Initiatives. She also oversaw health research projects in Malawi while teaching courses on international social work, global social policy, and global women and children's health.
