The U.S. Department of State is challenging all U.S. alumni of U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs to tell the world about the incredible benefits of international exchange and inspire more Americans to go abroad. How did your international experience change you for the better? There are three ways to participate in the 2016 U.S. Citizen Diplomacy Challenge. Choose your favorite or participate in all three for a chance to win a professional development trip to Washington D.C. and other exclusive prizes!

- Share your Story Challenge: Write your study abroad story! Share a brief, compelling personal narrative that demonstrates the benefits of international exchange and would inspire more people to go abroad.
- Back to School Challenge: Go "back to school" in order to give presentations to students on what participating in an exchange program meant to you and share information about relevant U.S. government-sponsored exchange opportunities.
