As a National Resource Center for Russian, East European & Eurasian Studies, REEES's Outreach Program plays a pivotal role in sharing information and expertise on Russia, Eastern Europe, and Eurasia with educators both at the college/university level, and kindergarten through secondary (K-12) level, as well as the professional communities and general public. Outreach programs are offered throughout the year. These include but are not limited to: teachers' professional development workshops, study abroad opportunities, faculty development seminars, curriculum development projects, school visit programs, free educational resources, lecture and film series, arts and entertainment, and REEES newsletters. If you wish to stay up-to-date with REEES events and outreach programs, subscribe to our weekly updates.
