Cultural Resources
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 pictures are windows on the world and into our memories. The photos introduce you to the people who welcomed us so warmly into their communities. And in the dayblock section of each month you will find important festivals, birthdays, and holidays celebrated or observed around the world by those who welcomed us and enriched our lives.
The International Calendar is so much more than just a calendar with pretty pictures. It is a teaching aid that introduces you to a wide variety of people and cultures, and to varied lifestyles, terrain, foods, occupations, and crafts from around the world.
