The purpose of this program is to
provide an intensive ten-day international experience for participants to
explore pressing issues of global concern and to view such issues from a
perspective both literally and figuratively outside the borders of the United
States. In this way, students will be
exposed to the relationship between poverty, global responsibility, social
justice, and sustainable development.
This program will make students more aware of global issues and of what
it means to be a “global citizen”, more discerning in their assessment of
information pertaining to world affairs, and more understanding of America’s
place in the world as well as of non-Americans’ perception of the U.S.
