Public-private collaboration advancing academic exchange.
The 100,000 Strong in the Americas Innovation Fund is a public-private collaboration between the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Embassies, Partners of the Americas, corporations, and foundations working together to stimulate new higher education partnerships between the United States and the rest of the Western Hemisphere.
The central, trusted mechanism to support this hemispheric-wide education initiative of the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs at the U.S. Department of State is the Innovation Fund, which builds bridges of connectivity, enhances institutional capacity, increases student exchanges, and strengthens regional education cooperation throughout the Americas.
