Future Global Leaders Program

While we are always looking to work with other countries, we are currently working with primarily Japanese and American high school and university students. As part of our emphasis on experiencing other cultures firsthand, we encourage our participants to first examine their own culture and how they are perceived in the globalized world. Are there more similarities or differences between these two cultures? Nothing will challenge your preconceived notions about your own culture, other cultures, and even yourself than learning abroad. We equip FGLP participants with as much information as possible to help facilitate these important questions. What do you think you know about Japan? Read more in "Cultural Differences Between the U.S and Japan." And what do you think you know about America? Read more in "American Cultural Traits, Values and Assumptions." Do you agree or disagree? Your FGLP trip will challenge you to reassess these assumptions and find your own place within the globalized world.
