Connecting Youth Leaders in Your School

Global Scholar: COVID-19 Edition offers a special opportunity for youth at your school to come together to explore their shared experiences and connections, understand their differences, and work together to propose bold youth-led interventions and alternatives.

Proposing Bold Youth-Led Interventions to Address COVID-19

We are living in extraordinary times. COVID-19 has transformed our lives in a matter of months, and its impacts compel us to examine many of the systems and structures that have facilitated its devastation. In crisis, there is often opportunity, too. Scholars will not only explore the challenge of COVID-19, they will work together to propose a bold vision for what can be, and start the work to make it so.

I would tell a friend that this experience is really great for expanding your thinking about world issues, especially COVID-19.

I thought the Global Scholar experience was one of the most engaging, fun experiences that I’ve ever had. Not only did I learn a lot about the building blocks of social justice, but also how it can be applied in “normal” times and this unprecedented time that COVID-19 has created. I would definitely tell friends how amazing this opportunity was, not only in the learning but also the social aspect.

I loved it so much. It helped me become aware of my actions and how much of a voice I have.

Absolutely amazing, sincerely one of the BEST experiences ever!
