Letter from the President
Today, IREX is a growing international organization with a $50 million portfolio encompassing education, independent media, and civil society development through partnership, consultation, training, academic and professional exchange, and research.
The world has dramatically changed since 1968 when IREX began working in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. We have taken the best practices and lessons gained from our experience in Europe and Eurasia to face the unique issues and challenges in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
Together with IREX Europe and our many local partners around the globe, IREX seeks programming opportunities that strengthen local communities, promote good governance, train the next generation of democratic leaders, and enhance knowledge in critical areas of social, economic, and public policy development.
IREX Highlights (PDF, 1.4MB) represents the growth of our organization and the impact of IREX and IREX Europe's programs to address grassroots and global issues.
Yours sincerely,
