The current global crisis and recent events illuminating long-standing injustice in the United States illustrate the need for young people from all backgrounds to develop critical skills in empathy, agency, and global perspective. In response, Global Glimpse launched our virtual Brave New Academy to provide diverse U.S. high school students with critical life and leadership skills that prepare them to collaborate across divides and navigate uncertain times.

I got the opportunity to meet awesome people from around the world that are making change for the better. I would never have gotten to meet them if it wasn't for this program. Along with that, the academy taught me skills that no class in school has taught me and more!

While I, like many individual teachers struggled with remote learning, Global Glimpse collaboratively built a unique, well-conceived, program that was able to engage, give valuable life skills, and instill a sense of personal agency in students from across the country.
