Since its founding by Congress in 1999, the Open World
Program has enabled more than 14,000 current and
future Eurasian leaders to experience American democracy,
civil society and community life; work with their
American counterparts; stay in American homes; and gain
new ideas and inspiration for implementing
change back home. Some 6,000 American host families and
their communities in all 50 states have partnered
with the U.S. Congress and Open World to make this
ambitious public diplomacy effort possible.
