Travel with #suGCP Videos from Abroad

Five GCP Teams are around the world on GCP this week

The 2018 GCP Teams are around the world in Uruguay, Spain, China, Rwanda, and Iceland! 

SU’s Global Citizenship Project provides global experiences that encourage students, faculty and staff to gain a greater awareness of themselves and an appreciation for the cultural differences that make our world a better place.

Each spring break, Shenandoah sends 60 selected students, faculty, and staff to international destinations to help broaden their horizons. Applicants sign on without knowing where they will travel—They could be spending spring break anywhere in the world!

GCP removes the boundaries associated with first-time travel, in order to whet the appetites of participants for longer-term learning abroad.

The Global Citizenships Project is all costs included for participants!
