Program Details
IVLP Classroom
IVLP Classroom is a virtual initiative that connects exchange alumni of the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) with classrooms across the United States to discuss key U.S. foreign policy priorities.
Launched in 2021, this initiative provides students with the unique opportunity to engage directly with international leaders, fostering global awareness while enhancing their leadership and communication skills.
IVLP Classroom sessions are:
- One-time engagements: Follow-on sessions may be arranged upon request.
- Virtual: Hosted on platforms such as Zoom, Teams, and other web conferencing tools.
- Typically one hour: Session lengths can be adjusted based on specific needs.
- Conducted in English: Language preferences and interpretation services can be accommodated, if required.
- A Curriculum Enhancement: The session’s theme is selected to compliment the teacher’s lesson plans.
- The IVLP Classroom initiative is managed by the IVLP Team at the U.S. Department of State and implemented in cooperation with Global Ties U.S. community-based members (CBMs) across the United States.
