Current events are a great tool for learning about and connecting with your adopted overseas culture. Below you will find links for news agencies across the globe providing up to date information on the political and cultural activities of a particular country or region. All links will direct you to English websites, unless otherwise noted. If you are planning to study in a non-English speaking country you can also gain a greater familiarity with your host language just by browsing through the top news stories of the day and jotting down a few new words.
