INSTRUCTIONS:
Thank you for participating in the 2025 Global Ties U.S. Exchanges Photo Contest
!
We are looking for photos that capture the spirit of citizen diplomacy and showcase the power and impact of exchanges, both in-person and online.
Photos should tell a story, highlight an interaction between exchange participants and community leaders, and demonstrate why exchange matters.
Submissions may be from members of the Global Ties Network, U.S. Government representatives, interpreters/liaisons working on international exchange programs, exchange program alumni, and others who have interacted with or been involved in international exchange programming, particularly those sponsored by the U.S. Government.
Photos should have been taken between August 1, 2023 - August 30, 2024.
See examples from
last year's submissions. You may submit up to five entries. Each photo must be of the highest resolution and quality available.
For each photo submitted, please provide the title of the photo, a brief description of the story behind the photo, and the name of the exchange program it is associated with.
Please read the Rules and Regulations. Winning submissions are selected by a panel of representatives from the U.S. Department of State, Global Ties U.S., and National Program Agencies.
Deadline for submissions: Friday, August 30, 2024
