Cooperation among World Area Programs

Abstract

The task of conducting outreach through NDEA centers has not been restricted to African centers. From the mid-seventies all such area study programs funded through Title VI were called upon by the federal government to undertake some sort of outreach activities. The Office of Education in its guidelines identified four areas to which such programs should direct themselves: the business community, the general public, precollegiate educational institutions, and other universities and junior colleges that had no NDEA-funded centers.
