Applications for the Peace, Trade, and Development are due Monday, June 9!
It’s not too late for you or your colleagues to take part in an engaging global summer experience and apply to the Monterey Institute’s Peace Trade and Development Program. The PTD program utilizes the richness of the areas of Central and Northern California as a laboratory to explore the dynamics of global systems. From start to finish, you will be engaged in active and immersion learning experiences. You will leave the program with a solid and holistic understanding of global affairs, experienced first-hand within a 60-mile ratio from the Institute. This program is designed for upper-level undergraduates, prospective graduate students, and new professionals to expose them to challenging learning experiences in order to master key concepts and tools in human security, global trade, social change and development. Please share this bog with any interested or qualified candidate for the program.
Here is what program participants can look forward:
Gain a comprehensive understanding of trade and economic development by visiting innovative businesses in Silicon Valley and by interacting with trade policy professionals at the San Jose Free-Trade Zone.
Learn firsthand about issues pertaining to social justice and youth violence and strategies for building community resilience through a multi-stakeholder process.
