## What the grant funds

Creative Arts Exchange (CAE) initiatives are arts-based, international people-to-people exchanges that support and further U.S. Department of State foreign policy objectives and support the Interim National Security Strategy goals of strengthening democratic values around the globe by demonstrating the power of creative free expression; and growing inclusive economic opportunities and prosperity for communities globally. CAE initiatives create partnerships through artistic collaboration and professional development. Programs are implemented in close coordination with U.S. embassies and consulates abroad. Eligible themes and/or artistic genres for CAE initiatives vary and are determined based on Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) strategic priorities.
