The "Global Citizens" experiential online program, organized by Universitas 21, or U21, an international network of leading research universities, is now open to students from all member universities.

Focused on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG), the three-week course encourages participants from around the world to collaboratively explore some of today's most pressing issues facing our global community.

Students have the flexibility to choose and delve into a specific sustainable development goal based on their personal interests. The program employs a task-based progression, revealing the content for the following week only after completing the initial course modules, adding motivation to the learning process. Additionally, the program combines online video learning with real-time meeting discussions, providing students with the opportunity for cross-border and cross-time zone intellectual exchange.

Program dates: March 11-29
