According to this post, a number of Tajik educators arrived in the US for an eight-day study tour at the Center for Economic Education at Fort Hays State University. The aim of the program is to show how economic education is delivered in the US.

Mahbouba Avezova, executive director of the Foundations for Economic Reforms, and Sulhiya Bahodurova, senior teacher at the Khudjansk branch of the Tajik University of Technology, will speak with select FHSU classes and Hays and Lucas-Luray K-12 students. They will also participate in several visits during their eight-day stay in Hays, including Hays Medical Center, Wal-Mart Super Center, Bank of America and EnerSys Telecommunications Battery Manufacturing Plant.

Hopefully, through this program, Tajik educators will gain invaluable experience and transfer their knowlege to the generation of young Tajiks.

Since 1995, the NCEE has conducted the economic education component of the Cooperative Education Exchange Program. Legislation for the CEEP grew out of the conviction that economic and civic education are critical to the economic health and political stability of the emerging democracies of the former Soviet Union and eastern and central Europe. The program promotes educational reform through training, materials translation and development, study tours, conferences and other forms of exchange.
