 Since 1989, the International Association of
Black Professionals in International Affairs (BPIA) has succeeded in
encouraging people of color to participate more fully in the
international community and in preparing constituents for leadership
roles in world affairs. BPIA has also been instrumental in broadening
the perspective of organizations engaged in international affairs,
particularly in relation to the concerns, experiences and contributions
of people of color.
The stark under-representation of minorities, especially African
Americans, deprives the United States of a range of perspectives,
inputs, and human resources to draw upon in meeting the challenges of
the 21st century. Accordingly, BPIA will continue to respond to the
country's changing security, intelligence, foreign policy, educational
and commercial needs by increasing the involvement of African Americans
and other people of color in international affairs, preparing them for
leadership roles in world affairs, encouraging their participation more
fully in the global community and supporting public and private sector
organizations with international and multicultural dimensions.

these sessions career options and current international issues are
discussed in small group settings at the homes of mentors or at pubic
sites. Participants have a valuable opportunity to share and learn from
leaders who represent a variety of disciplines. BPIA counts among its
mentors:
One of the missions of BPIA is to contribute to
