Empowerment: nurturing connections between students who share a passion for international education and developing professional networks with advanced Fellows, alumni, and mentors who accomplishments provide role models for international impact.

Engagement: encouraging deeper exploration of opportunities to positively influence change in international contexts and developing a sense of efficacy in leading this change.
