Education Beyond Borders: Inclusion in Context: Canada
2023 Program
What is Education Beyond Borders?
Education Beyond Borders was born at the intersection of global engagement and cross-disciplinary collaboration. This international virtual experience cultivates a deeper understanding of topics that affect countries around the world. Education Beyond Borders will be offered as a 3-credit course with travel to Vancouver.
What is the theme for Education Beyond Borders 2023?
Creating change agents to foster community impact on a global scale, we anchor our experience on the City of Vancouver's Equity Framework, exploring the theme of inclusion. The City of Vancouver acknowledges that it is situated on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy əm (Musqueam), Sḵwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ(Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. This year’s Education Beyond Borders program includes a 3-credit virtual course; culminating with travel to Vancouver, Canada to apply concepts learned in the program. The program is offered for students and alumni across the colleges and universities of the TCS Education System.
