Global Citizen Year
Global Citizen Year is an Oakland-based non-profit that recruits and trains a diverse corps of American high school seniors to participate in an immersion-based international bridge year – often called a gap year – before starting college. The organization is founded on the idea that America’s next generation of leaders will require global citizenship to effectively address the problems of the 21st century.
== History ==
Global Citizen Year was founded after Abigail Falik won first place in the 2008 Harvard Business School Pitch for Change with her blueprint for the idea.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Global Citizen Year » About Us )〕 After graduating from high school, Falik had looked for an opportunity for global service before college but found that the Peace Corps would not accept 18-year-olds, and that few similar programs existed for that age group. Abigail has since dedicated her professional life to creating new opportunities for young Americans to learn about the world. Falik received a B.A. and M.Ed. from Stanford University, and an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Global Citizen Year » Our Team )〕
The inaugural class of Global Citizen Year Fellows was chosen in 2009. Initially, Fellows traveled to Guatemala and Senegal, but in 2010 the program expanded placements to Senegal, Brazil, and Ecuador.〔
