Description
On this trip, students will have the opportunity to meet with UN officials to discuss the role of multi-lateral institutions in international diplomacy, security, human rights, and other important issues. Students will also meet with U.S. officials working at the UN to learn about the American perspective on international organizations and how they impacts U.S. foreign policy. We will be connecting with ALLIES and Tufts alumni in New York as a networking opportunity.
This trip will be fully-funded and cost should not deter students from applying!
We are aiming for a final count of 20 students but will make adjustments based on expenses related to participation.
