About The Program
If you’re fired up about global challenges from the environment, to global security, to securing access to education for all, then this is the program for you. Global is local, and our program provides context and perspective, while empowering participants to ultimately take action in their community. Global Scholars are eager to explore, dig deep, and ask tough questions. They know the many issues we face are reflective of complex economic, political and social systems that need to be challenged. And Global Scholars don’t sit on the sidelines and wait for change to happen. They’re committed to exploring their role and power to be part of the solution. Global Scholars are dreamers, builders, and doers. They know it’s up to us to pursue, design and demand our shared future.
This summer we are offering an exciting program for students entering grade 8, i.e. 12 an 13 years old. The experience includes our foundational workshops and issue seminars, alongside exploring Washington. DC. This is a great opportunity for students to take a first step in exploring public and international affairs at the heart of it all: Washington, DC.
