Abstract of Proposed Collection

    This request for a new information collection will allow ECA/P/V to 
conduct a descriptive survey of the exchange participants who went on 
the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program between 1979 and 2009. 
Collecting this data will help ECA/P/V examine what Fellows have been 
doing post-program, and their roles in critical areas of change at 
work, and in their fields of study, and how the program affected their 
work. Data collections efforts will be conducted via electronic survey.
