The 100,000 Strong in the Americas (100K) Innovation Fund expands opportunities for higher education institutions to create partnerships and launch innovative student exchange and training programs. This opens access to underrepresented student populations, improves workforce development training, increases public-private investment, and strengthens people-to-people ties between the United States and Latin America and the Caribbean.
The 100,000 Strong in the Americas initiative equips and builds a thriving, skilled workforce across the Americas through multi-sector partnerships and innovative regional education collaboration. Equipping students with technical and linguistic skills through exchange programs, 100,000 Strong helps develop a more skilled workforce and strengthens regional economies. In 100,000 Strong, the U.S. Government, the private sector and regional governments, and higher education institutions work together to strengthen regional prosperity and U.S. economic security.
