Abstract:

The Institute for Global Leadership (IGL) at Tufts University is an interdisciplinary learning center devoted to educating, training, and preparing students for global leadership.

IGL is known for its Education for Public Inquiry and International Citizenship (EPIIC) colloquium, symposium, and workshops. Other programs include: INQUIRY, a global issues simulation program for high school students; the Program for Narrative and Documentary Practice (PNDP); and international exchanges such as the Tufts Initiative for International Leadership and Perspective (TILIP).
