Duration
1 months
Description
Between 1997 and 2007, Manhattanville College hosted the Global Student Leadership program, which had a vision of creating a worldwide network of young women serving as local leaders and change agents, equipped with the creativity, self-confidence, and enterprise management skills necessary to transform their communities. Coming primarily from South America, the Caribbean, East Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe, some 120 young university students spent six weeks at the college, undergoing intensive coursework and visiting such institutions as the United Nations. In June 2017, about forty alumni of the program, now at mid-career, will gather at the college to reconnect, reflect on their experiences, and participate in a day of workshops at New York University’s Stern School of Business. This grant will underwrite participant costs and the cost of photography and videography during the event.
