Finnish Educational Exchange Act of 1949

Finnish Educational Exchange Act of 1949 is a United States statute supporting an accord for war reparations acquired by the Republic of Finland during the Finnish Civil War and World War I. The Act of Congress authorized the collection of future reparation payments by Finland to be reserved in a depository institution or special deposit account administered by the United States Department of the Treasury. The financial endowment was to be available and governed by the United States Department of State. The Finland academic exchange endowment procured financing for the furtherance of academic instruction and studies, educational activities, and technical training as a collaborative pursuit by Republic of Finland and the United States.

Arkansas Senator James Fulbright endorsed the senatorial conditions for the Fulbright Act of 1946 during September 1945 establishing the preliminary progressive elements for foreign academic exchange programs. The eighty-first Senate joint resolution was sponsored by Senator Fulbright serving as a benefactor for student exchange programs at the crest of the post-war interval in light of the aftermath of World War II and Finland in World War II.

The Fulbright Program achieved the dialogue of cultural diplomacy and the harmonious exchange of globalization. The international exchange-of-persons affairés skillfully seasoned the Cold War embracing a culmination by the revolutions of 1989 and the end of the Cold War.
