International Speakers Fund Application Open Now!


Would you like to visit other DKG countries? The ISF Committee facilitates exchange of Society
speakers among member countries.

Here are a few tips for completing a successful application to become an ISF Speaker:

·         You may offer 3 different topics. State organization presidents will be reviewing many possible speakers, so write appealing descriptions. Show enthusiasm for your theme.

·         Offer as many formats of presentation as possible. Offering a workshop, seminar, or discussion group in addition to a keynote makes a speaker more attractive. It could be about the same subject or another topic.

·         Many state organizations are interested in learning about the culture and school system of other DKG countries. Be ready to talk about your country.

·         Complete the form in English. Bilingual speakers are welcome to write their topic description in BOTH English and their native language.

·         Have your reference information ready – you will need the names of your chapter president, state president, and someone who has heard you speak.

·         Follow deadlines – the application is due September 15th.
