Jeffrey Morton, Director of Leon Charney Diplomacy Program, Foreign Policy Association Fellow, Department of Political Science, Florida Atlantic University
Leon Charney, a back-door channel advisor to leaders and diplomats during the Camp David Accords between Israel and Egypt, believed that through dialogue and diplomacy any goal can be achieved. The Leon Charney Diplomacy Program offered by Florida Atlantic University was named in his honor in 2016, starting a fruitful collaboration between the Charney Resolution Center and FAU. I’m excited to be representing the Center when I take the course in the coming fall. I’m looking forward to developing new skills and gaining experience in this field. I decided to interview the head of the course, Professor Jeffrey Morton, to have a better grasp of what is awaiting me and to hear his opinion on the current Corona-virus pandemic. By Jaime Musso
