The panel will present the achievements of Fulbright English Teaching Assistants (ETAs) from four European countries and the long-term impacts that their Fulbright grants have had on themselves and their host communities. Alumni of Fulbright Czech Republic, Poland, Germany and Slovak Republic will discuss:

1. changing perspectives through art,
2. supporting and promoting diversity,
3. expanding worldviews and future study and career opportunities and
4. the power of international exchange for educators.

The online event will have a mixed format of a moderated panel with Fulbright Commission Executive Directors participating. ETA Program alumni will share their stories and explore their themes in greater detail in four breakout rooms, encouraging a discussion with the audience. Participants will have the option to join the breakout room of their preference.
