GlobalND to host eight Pakistani energy officials

MINOT, N.D. – GlobalND will host eight Pakistani energy officials from Aug. 6 to Aug. 12.

Coming to the United States under the auspices of the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) of the U. S. State Department, the Pakistani’s overall program theme is “Integrated Energy Planning for the Power and Petroleum Sectors.”

GlobalND, a non-profit, all-volunteer community-based organization, fosters international relationships and global understanding through people-to-people diplomacy. It was founded in 1993 as the Minot Area Council for International Visitors through the cooperation of Minot State University and the surrounding community, including the city of Minot, the Minot Education Association, and the Minot Air Force Base. Part of the Global Ties US Network, GlobalND works with the IVLP of the US State Department.

GlobalND has arranged appointments for them, ranging from meetings with the Oil and Gas Division of the ND Department of Mineral Resources to the Native Green Grow project of the MHA Nation. They will also be hosted for dinner by two Minot families.

From Minot, they will proceed to Tulsa for additional meetings and demonstrations.
