| IVL Program |
GCIV is responsible for arranging professional programs, cultural orientations and home hospitality for 400-600 distinguished international leaders each year. These visitors travel to Georgia as part of a variety of exchange programs, with a majority coming through the U.S. Department of State's International Visitor Leadership Program. The IVLP seeks to build mutual understanding between the United States and other nations through carefully designed professional visits to the U.S. for current and emerging foreign leaders. Through these encounters, visitors gain a greater understanding of the cultural and political influences in U.S. society and enjoy a firsthand experience of the U.S., its people, and its culture. Visitors represent government, politics, the media, education, non-governmental organizations, the arts, public health, international security, business, and other fields. Over 180 current and former heads of government and state and numerous leaders in the public and private sectors have participated in the International Visitor Leadership Program.
