Celebrating an American Superpower: Exchange Day 2025

Exchange Day
Written By Gabrielle Cascio

On Monday, August 4, 2025, join the Alliance and the broader international education and cultural exchange community in celebrating Exchange Day! International exchange programs are an American superpower: they drive our economy, create future leaders, advance American interests, and tell America’s story. Every day is a celebration of exchanges but on the first Monday of every August, we intentionally take the time to celebrate and raise awareness about exchange programs and to spread the word about the many ways in which people and communities benefit from people-to-people diplomacy.   

Visit https://alliance-exchange.org/events/celebrate-exchange-day/ to learn more about how you can celebrate Exchange Day. And if you already have an Exchange Day celebration in the works that you would like to share and see amplified, please share it here!
