The Northwestern University Center for Global Engagement is opening up to non-Northwestern students a unique summer program in Bolivia, Nicaragua, India, and Uganda called the Global Engagement Summer Institute.
Are you passionate about global change, committed to learning by doing, and ready to engage in hands-on international development?
The Global Engagement Summer Institute will equip you to:
- Work directly with grassroots NGOs and local communities in Uganda, India, Nicaragua, or Bolivia
- Leverage the strengths — rather than list the weaknesses — of the communities in which you live and work abroad
- Live with a host family and immerse yourself in another culture for eight weeks
- Work in teams to design and implement an original development project in environmental development, microfinance, youth and education, gender and development, global health, social enterprise, and more
