Engaging Foreign Audiences

The Book Tuk, one of nine American Spaces in Nepal, brings America to the neighborhoods of Kathmandu. American Spaces exemplifies the U.S. commitment to citizens’ right to free access to information. Launched in 2016, the Book Tuk, an electric tuk-tuk adapted from a decommissioned embassy vehicle, continues to expand its outreach to enhance U.S. and Nepal people-to-people connections. During outreach visits, the Book Tuk team not only introduces amazing books to hundreds of children, but also organizes interesting and creative activities. Furthermore, the Book Tuk conducts strategic and thematic programs to advance U.S. foreign policy goals, including enhancing entrepreneurship, encouraging democracy and ensuring inclusivity.
