Great Decisions is a program sponsored by the Foreign Policy Association, a national, non-profit, non-partisan, non-governmental organization devoted to informing the general public about world affairs. DCOWA is the program's regional coordinator.

Great Decisions provides participants with a way to better understand critical world issues, economics, current events and international relations. Great Decisions study groups meet at various locations on regularly scheduled dates and times to discuss world affairs topics and events. The group meetings are free and open to the public, unless otherwise specified. The Great Decisions study guide can be purchased to use in conjunction with study groups. To find a discussion group in your area, call the Dayton Council on World Affairs office at 937-775-3766.
