Girls Lead the World.
The Institute for Global Education (IGE) introduces girls ages 11-14 to the key tenets of the Miss Porter’s School learning environment, which are interdisciplinary in nature and global in scope. Girls learn beyond the classroom by conducting field research, interacting with leaders in their respective fields, and developing skills through real world application and hands-on experience.
The IGE offers two unique week-long sessions that prepare campers to contribute to our world as global citizens, empowering girls to challenge their assumptions, engage with diverse perspectives, and cultivate the empathy and responsibility needed to contribute to the global community. Campers build their changemaking skills with a visit to the UN in New York City and interactive activities centered around the Sustainable Development Goals.
Each week-long session is $1750 for overnight campers and $1350 for day campers.
