It is the sense of Congress that— promoting partnerships between United States universities and universities in the Western Balkans, particularly universities in traditionally under-served communities, advances United States foreign policy goals and requires a whole-of-government approach, including the utilization of public-private partnerships; such university partnerships would provide opportunities for exchanging academic ideas, technical expertise, research, and cultural understanding for the benefit of the United States; and the seven countries in the Western Balkans meet the requirements under section 105(c)(4) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 ( 22 U.S.C. 2151c(c)(4) ).
The President, working through the Secretary of State, is authorized to provide assistance, consistent with section 105 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 ( 22 U.S.C. 2151c ), to promote the establishment of partnerships between United States universities and universities in the Western Balkans, including— supporting research and analysis on foreign policy, cyber resilience, and disinformation; working with partner governments to reform policies, improve curricula, strengthen data systems, train teachers and students, including English language teaching, and to provide quality, inclusive learning materials; encouraging knowledge exchanges to help provide individuals, particularly at-risk youth, women, people with disabilities, and other vulnerable, marginalized, or underserved communities, with relevant education, training, and skills for meaningful employment; promoting teaching and research exchanges between institutions of higher education in the Western Balkans and in the United States; and encouraging alliances and exchanges with like-minded institutions of education within the Western Balkans and the larger European continent.
