The Open World Program, administered by the Open World Leadership Center, has brought more than 10,500 young political and civic leaders to the U.S. from all regions of the Russian Federation, Ukraine, and Lithuania, and nearly all regions of Uzbekistan. The Center recently set a goal of expansion into all countries of the former Soviet Union by 2011. Open World is in need of a Contractor to provide expert and consultant services to the Center (and its partner the Library of Congress) in further developing and maintaining the Program's multi-lingual website. These services for the Program's website include: redesigning a user friendly navigation format, transfering information from existing video and audio links; creating and loading graphics and texts in both English and Russian; developing the website as a means of communication among alumni in Russia and other post Soviet States, American hosts, and Open World staff in several countries.
