IIE/IVLP visitors represent a variety of social, economic, cultural and professional aspects of their societies. They come from government, business, education, and the arts, and meet with their American professional counterparts in one of our 8 core programming areas:

Economic Reform and Development Governance Law and Civil Society Environment Women's Empowerment

Public Health Media Science and Technology Arts and Culture

In these peer exchanges, visitors have the opportunity to obtain firsthand knowledge about the United States, its people, policies, and culture and to establish lasting professional relationships and learn about the intellectual and economic status of other countries.
