Executive Summary
The United States Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs’ Office of International Visitors (ECA/PE/V) announces an open competition for a cooperative agreement to support the staff expenses and overhead costs of the FY 2026 International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) Collaborative Services. Launched in 1940, the IVLP is the Department of State’s foundational professional exchange program. The IVLP advances U.S. national security priorities and builds long-term relationships between Americans and international leaders in government, business, academia, and other fields through customized short-term visits to the United States. IVLP participants are current and emerging leaders from around the world. These visits support U.S. foreign policy goals and reflect the participants’ professional interests. Eligible recipients will have expertise in foreign policy and experience supporting professional exchange programming.
