Our Impact

Leveraging our nationwide, professional Global Ties Network, Global Ties U.S. tailors travel and program itineraries to meet the cultural and professional needs of international visitors, governments, companies, private funders, and more.  

We implement a range of inbound, outbound, and virtual exchange programs that provide participants with comprehensive professional education, enhanced skill sets, and opportunities to immerse themselves in a new culture.  

We work closely with program partners and funders to identify objectives and outcomes for each project, and to ensure that participants engage, learn, and build their capacity to do their important work. Our Network knows their communities better than anyone and can connect you to the people and organizations you need to accomplish your program objectives.
