Ayumi explains the nexus of the program this way. "As a teacher it's my experience that project based leaning through authentic experiences create opportunities for a deeper learning experience for children." She continues "that during Covid, we found that the need for connection was a global desideratum. The Passports Program grew from our desire to offer authentic learning experiences and connection for all children."

The highly interactive program begins with a geography exchange where the children from one of AFO's partner organizations will share their country's flag, National flower, National bird, and other interesting details of life in their country. The students from the participating American elementary school are then excited to share their own experiences.

According to UNESCO, United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization a genuine acknowledgement of cultural diversity is essential to improving the lives of children globally.
