PUBLIC DIPLOMACY

The Public Diplomacy section of the United States Embassy focuses on building mutual understanding between people through its informational, educational and cultural programs. A key support for all these programs is the Regional English Language Programs Office (RELO). The Regional English Language Office tries to ensure that there is an English competent cadre of professionals and government officials who can participate directly in dialogues with their U.S. counterparts, participate in U.S. Government exchange programs, and work with U.S. companies and organizations that would like to do business with the host country. The RELO assists the English teaching community in the host country to develop the language competency of the professionals and the successor generation.

KEY ACTIVITIES
  • Working with host country universities with faculties and departments engaged in pre-service teacher education, American literature, Study of the U.S., applied linguistics, linguistics, and other related fields.
  • Working with National Teachers of English Associations (e.g. affiliates of TEFLIN, PALT, MELTA and TESOL) in such areas as teacher professional development through national, regional, and local workshops, seminars, and conferences; program assessment; and materials and information dissemination (e.g. via the RELO web page).
  • Working with host country Ministries of Education assisting with such activities as in-service training, curriculum development, assessment issues and development, language policy issues, and trainer training, as well as classroom observation and assessment.
