Working with the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, Meridian currently administers roughly one third of all IVLP projects annually, introducing to the U.S. approximately 1,500 emerging leaders from diverse fields including government, politics, media, education, and the judiciary among other sectors. Effort includes designing and developing program content, introducing American culture and managing logistics. Program topics are diverse and, during 2016, included trafficking in persons, journalism, entrepreneurship, foreign policy, education, health, judicial system, arts and culture, agriculture, religious diversity and anti-corruption. The years highlights featured projects for the Edward R. Murrow program for journalists and the tip heroes awards. Multi-regional projects focused on global womens health issues, building community resilience to radicalization and violent extremism, international military and security cooperation, broadcast journalism, promoting social change through the arts and connecting English teachers to U.S. history and culture.
