International Education Week 2001
November 12 – 16, 2001
A partnership between the U.S. Department of
Education
and the U.S. Department of State
| Update on International Education Week 2001 We thank all who participated in International Education Week 2001 for helping draw attention to the role of international education in creating understanding and promoting tolerance. Over 50 U.S. embassies abroad and hundreds of educational institutions and NGOs have sent in feedback about activities they sponsored in this context. As President Bush noted in his November 13 message in observance of International Education Week, "The relationships that are formed between individuals from different countries, as part of international education programs and exchanges, can...foster goodwill that develops into vibrant, mutually beneficial partnerships among nations." We look forward to building on this year's successes and to commemorating the ideals of international education and exchange with you again next year. |
International Education Week provides an opportunity to promote and celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This initiative is part of our effort to encourage policies and programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study in the United States.
We welcome the participation of all individuals and institutions engaged in international education and exchange, including schools, colleges and universities, embassies, international organizations, businesses, and associations.
