Global Education: |
- We believe in an education that will enable students to think critically and act as responsible global citizens.
- We teach students “how to think,” not “what to think."
- Our curriculum emphasizes mutual respect and understanding; When considering life in developing countries we focus on similarities and differences instead of the traditional “better/worse” or "Superior/inferior” evaluation processes.
|
Accessible to all: |
- 75% commitment-We believe that global education and international travel should be accessible to youth from all ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds.
- Global Glimpse Commits that 75% of our participants will receive scholarships and we strive to ensure that financial resources do not limit inclusion in the program
|
Community First: |
- We believe in supporting strong local communities
- Customize to community needs--Global Glimpse allows the customization of its curriculum to meet the specific needs of schools and communities
|
Community Service: |
- Global Glimpse goes beyond the traditional approach to service learning by teaching our participants to think critically about where and how their service can make the greatest impact. We take great care in building a service program that truly reflects local needs, exposes our participants to a wide range of effective local organizations, and instills in them a life-long passion for community involvement.
