Fulbright-Hays Program to Indonesia

This prestigious U.S. Department of Education Fulbright program funded a group of practicing North Carolina K-12 teachers, Appalachian faculty, and upper-level Education majors to study in Indonesia for four weeks in July 2019, focusing on history, culture, and the arts, in order to develop content-specific and interdisciplinary curriculum, to be used both in their schools and distributed online for all educators to access.

This group Fulbright-Hays program to Indonesia is unique in that very few U.S. educators have first-hand knowledge of Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous country, the third-largest democracy, and one of our most important political and economic partners. Ethnically the country is highly diverse, with hundreds of ethnic groups, languages, and local dialects. Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in the world, yet maintains a tradition of religious freedom that is upheld in its constitution.
