Building bridges,
Wake Forest to Moldova

Parliamentary affairs, transparent government, and civic leadership

Seven members of the Moldovan Parliament spent a week meeting North Carolina officials, educators, and public institutions. The agenda opened with Secretary of State Elaine F. Marshall and moved through the NC Supreme Court, PBS North Carolina, the UNC School of Government, and a full day at the General Assembly on drafting, fiscal research, and committee work.

Delegates also joined Rotarians at the Cars & Carnivores Street Festival, met the local Moldovan community, caught a Durham Bulls game, and closed the week at a farewell reception at the Stonegate Clubhouse.
