Educating
Global
Leaders


Sherman Teichman, Heather Barry

As Educators and practitioners lament the lack of informed involvement of young people in their civic communities, EPIIC (Education for Public Inquiry and Internaional Citizenship) is working to promote the active engagement and leadership of young people in global and national issues. With overviews from the program directors and through the words of its students, this article describes the EPIIC program at Tufts University, its high school counterpart, INQUIRY, and how their innovative curricula promote meaningful dialogue and inspire learning.
