The Tennessee World Affairs Council is a small, nonprofit, nonpartisan educational organization that seeks to cultivate a well-informed community capable of critical analysis of global events. It offers programs such as speaker events, seminars, webinars, podcasts, and outreach to high schools and colleges. The council is part of a national network of world affairs councils and frequently hosts in-person events at Belmont University in Nashville. Through regular webinars and podcasts, it connects participants with foreign ambassadors, diplomats, business leaders, military officers, scholars, and other specialists. Its Academic WorldQuest program engages high school students with weekly quizzes, certificate programs for students, and a statewide tournament whose champions advance to a national match and a tour of Washington, DC foreign affairs institutions.

As a membership organization, it invites participation from a broad community. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, the council primarily hosts events at Belmont University. It operates as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entity, reflecting its nonprofit status. In early 2022, the council expanded its programming by welcoming Ambassador John Kornblum as a regular contributor.
