The Office of American Spaces has developed a series of programming resource toolkits, activity guides, and debate kits tailored for American Spaces. All of the programming kits may be used to encourage the free expression of ideas and to foster discussion in English conversation groups. If you have questions about these kits or would like to suggest ideas for additional topics, please post a comment in our Facebook group, or email the Office of American Spaces at americanspaces@state.gov.
