    advanced bachelor global citizenship and development

    internships abroad

  • An eye-opening education program.

    Do you want to use your talents for a development project abroad, but also want to get to know the culture from the inside? And understand the context and history of the country?

     

    Then the 'Advanced Bachelor Global Citizenship and Development' of UCLL (Social School Leuven) is definitely something for you. During 2 months you will acquire insights about globalization, interculturality, development cooperation and language. In November you will leave for a 6-month adventure to a volunteer project in Africa, Europe or Asia.

     

    You mainly have contact with locals. The emphasis is on integration and reflection. You learn to situate everything within its socio-cultural, economic and political context.

     

    The Advanced Bachelor Global Citizenship and Development is a unique program in Europe. More than 750 students have already taken part.

    this is for you if:

    • you already have a bachelor's or master's degree
    • you want to convert your own knowledge into a broad practical experience in a social project
    • you come into contact with super diverse groups in your professional and personal life
    • you want to work abroad, for an NGO or in an internationally oriented environment
    • you want to develop further as a socially engaged citizen of the world
    • you have a specific interest in one of the themes or countries
  • starting points

    integration

    Dynamic

    Language lessons prepare you to enter into a dialogue with the people around you. You live among them and get to know their reality. At the same time, you also question your own cultural values.

    Duo-partner

    Anchor points

    You don't leave alone. You have one or more co-partners located in your city or region. This way you determine the balance between maintaining contact with the local population and occasionally relying on other students.
