Did you apply for the 2015 UNAOC-EF Summer School? Or someone you know? Well, the 75 participants for the 2015 Summer School have been selected from across the world for an amazing one week in New York. Of the 14,000 applications received, a selection committee comprised of young people, as well as representatives from the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations and EF Education First has chosen the participants.
The UNAOC-EF Summer School is a unique space for learning and collaborating that welcomes a diversity of participants, speakers and educators from a wide range of contexts. In this space, diverse perspectives, experiences and epistemologies contribute to greater understanding and respect among people, encourage new thinking, and inspire context-sensitive action and solutions.
Benefits
- These participants will travel to New York City and be accommodated in Tarrytown, NY, on EF’s international campus, where they will participate in the Summer School, which includes workshop sessions on the campus, a visit and panel discussion at the United Nations headquarters as well as site visits in New York City.
- They will increase their understanding of other cultures and faiths, explore the similarities that unite us, and gain concrete tools to grow and sustain your impact in your communities.
