BRIDGES is an eight-month program that provides Fellows with a stipend, educational training, mentoring and service learning experiences with local community-based organizations and international volunteer programs.
Before traveling abroad, Fellows are trained on key issues related to living and volunteering in another country: from cross-cultural issues to understanding the global economy and preparing to travel safely and responsibly. Upon their return, Fellows reflect on what they have learned and explore as a group how their combined experiences can create real links between local and global issues. They also explore ways to integrate what they have learned into their life, map a strategy for continuing service, and remain connected with the communities overseas.
