International Calendar | Overview
We began the International Calendar Project in 1987 to share Peace Corps experiences with our home communities and to raise money for grassroots projects in the countries where we served or in which we live.
The Calendar pictures are windows into our memories and introduce you to the people who welcomed us so warmly into their communities. Plus, nearly every day lists important festivals, birthdays, and holidays from around the world.
The International Calendar is more than just another annual time marker with pretty pictures. It is also designed as a teaching aid, introducing varied life styles, terrain, foods, occupations, and crafts from around the world. The calendar website has cultural information specific to each country, including, books, film, music, and food. Each year we provide Calendars to teachers who participate in Peace Corps’ Paul D. Coverdell World Wise Schools program.
The Calendar always features countries in which the Peace Corps is currently active or has been hosted in the past.
