About American Councils Lithuania

About AC Lithuania

American Councils Lithuania opened in Vilnius in 2008, but has been active in the region since 1995. Located in Old Town, Vilnius, this office has developed into a regional hub for educational activities in Belarus and the Baltic states, particularly as the FLEX program has expanded to include Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia.

The office works closely with the US Embassies in Minsk and Vilnius and maintains relationships with the Ministries of Education, a broad network of local high schools, and other community organizations and entities throughout the region.
