Dr. Clyde Rivers, Founder and President of ICN, with the Degree Recipients

IChange Nations™ has a philosophy: People found doing practical work worthy of acknowledgement and exemplifying the wisdom and skill of a true statesman need to be recognized for their efforts. There are some things that cannot be learned from a book, so the experience of using life and integral leadership skills to further the advancement of people around the world is found to be a valuable tool in aiding mankind to find a better way of life.  When this caliber of individual is discovered, IChange Nations™ feels it is important to formally recognize their hard work and award them a non-academic ICN National Statesman Degree.

For the first time, ICN was able to award many deserving recipients this degree on April 23, 2016. These people desiring to change the world for the better came to Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., to receive this prestigious award in full view of the world. The fifty nations represented championed these worthy individuals.

Dr. Clyde Rivers, Founder and President of IChange Nations™ said, “I am very impressed by the people that are coming into our ICN family. These individuals have far surpassed the status quo in the world. They are leading the way in new and exciting pathways of innovation to empower people across the globe. IChange Nations™ is honored to name and award these individuals and embrace their work.”

At the IChange Nations™ Honor Event April 23, 2016, on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., Dr. Jenny Lopez, founder of the Women Add Value Global Movement launched her “Men of Courage Award.”  This award is significant to the Women Add Value Movement because Dr. Lopez recognizes the value of men who allow women to flourish and influence the world around them.  Because of her strong zeal for recognition for women, she felt it appropriate to find and honor men courageous enough to encourage women to seek out their purpose and passion.  Dr. Clyde Rivers was the first recipient of this award, and four others followed during award launch.

Dr. Rivers said, “The Women Add Value Movement that Dr. Jenny is taking to the world is having a great impact everywhere she travels.  It is an honor to be the first recipient of this Men of Courage Award.  The Culture of Honor is spreading to the world and touching many because of people like Dr. Jenny Lopez.
