IABPIA is a charitable, non-profit membership association founded in 1989 to increase the involvement of African Americans and other people of African heritage in international affairs. IABPIA fulfills its objectives in education, cultural exchange and economic and professional development through public education forums and conferences, referrals, a newsletter, networking and outreach activities and the awarding of grants and scholarships.
It is a volunteer association of men and women brought together by our professional involvement or personal interest in international affairs. The goal is to increase and enhance the involvement of the African Diaspora and other under-represented minorities in the dynamics of political, economic and cultural relations between the nations and the peoples of the world through a commitment to linking efforts to those of groups and organizations that have mutually supportive purposes and goals.
