Public Diplomacy Goals for the American Hangout An American Hangout is a U.S. Consulate-funded American space located at a Vietnamese partnered university. An American Hangout is usually equipped with a TV or a screen for programming, and collections of books about the United States, English language teaching and learning materials, magazines, and resources about scholarships and studying in the U.S. An American Hangout provides onsite and virtual programs in English language learning; science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM); professional skills development; study in the U.S., and U.S. culture and values. These programs are conducted by the Vietnamese partnered university as well as the U.S. Consulate General Ho Chi Minh City’. The American Hangout serves as a reference point for faculty, students, and interested community groups of the host university and other schools in the region to freely exchange ideas and knowledge, improve English language skills, and learn about the United States. An American Hangout represents educational partnership between the U.S. Consulate General Ho Chi Minh city and the Vietnamese host university. |
