The Global Engagement Summit (GES) empowers young changemakers to produce innovative and sustainable solutions to shared global problems. They do this by providing training, facilitating mentorships, organising grant offerings, and connecting driven students with innovative thought leaders.
In addition to tangible outcomes, resources, and opportunities, GES also strives to provide a forum for discussing critical issues and evaluating why they want to “do good well.” Through GES, students can share challenges, develop their projects and equip themselves with the tools needed to take their social ventures to the next level.
Above all, GES hopes to foster a greater sense of community among the world’s social entrepreneurs. Young changemakers and thought leaders can learn and benefit from each other’s experiences and gain lifelong connections. The summit will take place on April 17 – 21, 2024 and will be hosted on Northwestern University’s campus in Evanston, Illinois.
Financial Aid
GES will organize housing, transportation, and daily breakfast and dinners for all delegates throughout the summit. However, if there are still financial barriers preventing you from attending the summit, they urge you to still apply. The Global Engagement Summit is proud to offer need-based financial aid to cover travel expenses associated with attending the in-person summit. Applications for aid will be available after you submit your application.
Eligibility
Open to young changemakers, thought leaders and social entrepreneurs.
