The YIA is organized as a Shared Interest Group of the Yale Alumni Association. Currently, our governing “Board” structure is formed as a working group which has overseen the initial development of the YIA. Alumni who were interested in lending their leadership skills to this initiative self-selected from a survey sent out by the AYA.  The working group, chaired by Renata Cesar (‘79), is charged with shepherding the formation of the organization and committees, soliciting alumni feedback and working closely with the AYA and other University partners.  The YIA will transition from a working group model to an official board structure upon the completion of sustained programmatic activities and leadership cultivation. If you are interested in serving on the YIA working group please contact yaleinternationalalliance@gmail.com.
