Cultural and Educational Exchange Programs

The U.S. Department of State administers programs to promote direct contact and the free exchange of ideas between Americans and Russians. Under these programs, Russians from many professions -- including business people, educators, elected officials scientists and students -- have been able to visit the U.S. and exchange views with their American colleagues. Our programs also sponsor visits by Americans to Russia to lecture, teach and share experiences.
