The Universitas 21 Summer School is a two-week workshop for undergraduate students from all disciplines. Each host chooses a theme to base activities around and many take the opportunity to introduce a topic that is of importance to the host university, region or country, thus making it a culturally-relevant experience for foreign students and an opportunity for local students to gain international perspectives on “home” issues.
