Juneau World Affairs Council (JWAC) Founded in 1982, the Juneau World Affairs Council (JWAC) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), non-partisan organization. The goal of JWAC is to encourage dialogue and understanding of important international, economic, political and social issues through expert presentation, informed discussion, and other educational activities. JWAC organizes presentations, lectures and panel discussions for the benefit of our members and the public. Speakers have included ambassadors, professors, business leaders, politicians, explorers, activists and more. The majority of JWAC’s presentations are free of charge and everyone is encouraged to attend. JWAC is funded by contributions from the community and WorldQuest. All work in the organization is performed by JWAC members and a volunteer board of directors.
