Co-facilitated by a team of UWC alumni and volunteers, the UWC Costa Rica Summer Program on Leadership and Social Change promotes the core values of the UWC movement. Participants will:

• Meet social entrepreneurs and learn from their personal stories
• Visit local communities where projects are taking place
• Engage in interactive group activities to develop leadership skills and to solve chosen problems using design thinking, collaboration, and creativity

This 10-day program will challenge participants, through experiential education, to engage with social justice issues on a local and global level, developing leadership and critical thinking skills.
