The Council on Foreign Relations is accepting applications for the CFR Education Ambassador Program, an eight-month professional learning opportunity for educators committed to helping students understand global issues and their role in an interconnected world.
The program connects educators from across the country with free CFR Education resources, professional development opportunities, expert insight, and a national network of educators focused on global affairs literacy.
CFR offers two ambassador cohorts: a High School Ambassador Program for teachers, department heads, and curriculum leaders, and a Higher Education Ambassador Program for professors, instructors, and administrators. The high school cohort is especially relevant for Indiana social studies educators teaching U.S. history, world history, geography, civics and government, economics, international relations, or related subjects.
Selected ambassadors participate in monthly virtual meetings, share feedback on CFR Education resources, connect with other educators, and help promote global affairs literacy in their schools and communities. Ambassadors are expected to attend at least three virtual meetings during the year. Participants also receive a certificate with professional development hours.
