In turn, these students will expose U.S. citizens to the culture, traditions, and lifestyles of people in Eurasia. Organizations are invited to submit proposals to recruit and select participants; prepare and process documents for approximately 1,134 participants (1,044 academic year students and 90 short-term participants); organize and run pre-departure orientations in each country; produce program publications; organize staff and student travel; manage information for overseas and domestic support; communicate with the students&#8223; natural families while on program; provide advice and counseling for students and placement organizations; and plan and implement follow-up activities with alumni.
