Please note: We are eager to hear from you – but please keep in mind that we may not be able to satisfy all requests for speakers.   Your flexibility and understanding is appreciated in the event that Embassy officers have other commitments that require immediate attention.  Also, we request at least two weeks’ notice to schedule a presentation.
