The Fulbright Association thanks Spectrum Leadership Solutions for sponsoring this event.

FY25 funding awarded by the U.S. Congress for the Fulbright Program and the Fulbright Association that was frozen in February has not yet been fully restored. Only approximately 85% of the outstanding Department of State payments for the Fulbright Program that were previously withheld due to the funding freeze have been restored, and funding for the Fulbright Association has not yet been released.

We urge you to join the Fulbright community and #StandforFulbright. The Fulbright Association is the unified voice of the Fulbright community, advocating for the program in the U.S. Congress. We take a strategic, non-partisan approach to advocacy at the local, national, and global levels.
