http://www.amideast.org/sites/default/files/dos_110_4.gif?1291318909
A Program of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA), U.S. Department of State Administered by American Councils for International Education in cooperation with the America-Mideast Educational and Training Services (AMIDEAST)-Cairo
On behalf of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) of the U.S. Department of State, American Councils for International Education is pleased to administer the Teachers of Critical Languages Program. This program seeks to strengthen foreign language instruction at U.S. schools, while also providing the exchange teachers the opportunity to learn about U.S. teaching methodologies, culture, and society. Current teachers in Egypt may apply to teach Arabic in a U.S. primary or secondary school; the exchange teacher may also serve as a cultural resource in the host school and community.
BUREAU OF EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL AFFAIRS (ECA) OF THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
The mission of the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs is to assist in the development of friendly, sympathetic, and peaceful relations between the U.S. and other countries by fostering mutual understanding. The Bureau does this through a wide range of international exchanges and training programs, as authorized by the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961 (as amended.) The Bureau works in close cooperation with U.S. Embassies overseas to promote personal, professional, and institutional ties between private citizens and organizations in the United States and abroad, as well as by presenting U.S. history, art, and culture in all of its diversity to audiences overseas.
Underlying the Bureau’s activities is the belief that mutual understanding is of vital importance in an increasingly interdependent world; that person-to-person exchanges and training is the most effective way to promote mutual understanding; that international exchanges enhance the effectiveness of the United States in dealing with other nations; and that the exchange of persons and ideas is essential to the promotion of democracy, economic prosperity, international cooperation, and global peace. A major part of the Bureau’s mission is to act as a catalyst for cooperation among hundreds of American private sector organizations engaged on the international scene.
