Quick Takes Videos
During the Covid crisis of the past couple of years, the World Affairs Council of the Monterey Bay Area suspended in-person luncheons in accordance with California regulations. Instead, we produced a series of “Quick Takes” video lectures by leading international affairs experts in the Monterey region. As of February 2022, we have resumed our regular monthly luncheon lectures and suspended production of Quick Takes. The complete collection of Quick Takes videos is still available online.
