What the grant funds

The U.S. Department of State's Embassy in the Philippines announces an opportunity to implement a professional exchange program bringing approximately twelve high-merit educators from the Philippines, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Brunei to the United States for direct, immersive exposure to American approaches to AI and educational technology integration in English language instruction. Participants are selected based on professional merit and institutional influence, and include university professors, language instructors, academic administrators, curriculum planners, teacher trainers, and ministry officials with the authority to shape national policy and procurement decisions in their home countries. Over a two-week exchange spanning at least two U.S. cities, participants engage in a structured program combining academic sessions, community site visits, and direct engagement with American industry and civil society. Site visits include U.S. companies working at the frontier of AI and educational technology, as well as organizations focused on responsible AI governance and human-centered technology frameworks, equipping participants to evaluate AI tools against both commercial and ethical standards. Structured roundtables and professional networking sessions connect participants with American educators and EdTech industry leaders throughout the exchange, culminating in attendance at SXSW EDU in March 2027 in Austin, Texas. Each participant produces a concrete action plan for implementing American-aligned AI and EdTech approaches within their home institution. A sustained professional network and structured post-program follow-up ensure that American approaches are actively institutionalized long after the exchange concludes.
