Young Diplomats U.S. Study Program

The Asia Foundation sponsors and organizes study programs in the United States for mid-career diplomats from India, Laos, and Myanmar. The programs typically consists of two components: intensive coursework on U.S. foreign policy at George Washington’s Elliot School of International Affairs, and a study tour designed to deepen understanding of the United States through meetings with a cross-section of Americans in diverse regions of the country. The program encourages intercultural exposure and stronger international relations.
