Buddy Bear Ambassador

December 16, 2019

On a personal trip to Germany, Talyn noticed life-size porcelain bears scattered around Berlin. Little did she know that these adorable bear sculptures served more than just being “cute”. These bears served a deep diplomatic purpose and had a history of tolerance and global acceptance.
In this podcast, Talyn Rahman-Figueroa (CEO) talks about how she discovered the Buddy Bear Ambassadors and the role these bears play to the modern practices of diplomacy in a country that shared a host of world wars.
