U.S. Speaker Program
Program Description
The U.S. Speaker program sends experts from the United States abroad, either in person or virtually, to engage and consult with key foreign audiences on a variety of technical topics.
The program aims to promote an understanding of U.S. policies and institutions within their political, economic, social, and cultural context. U.S. Speakers address topics identified and developed by U.S. missions, generally U.S. embassies and consulates, worldwide in cooperation with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
The U.S. Speaker Program is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State with funding provided by the U.S. Government and administered by World Learning. For further information regarding the program, please consult the U.S. Department of State’s website.
