Global programs work best when place, purpose, and learning outcomes align. This workshop explores how India’s cultural richness, strong community partnerships, and diverse landscapes enable schools to co-design curriculum-aligned programs. Participants will explore key co-design principles and examine how service, adventure, and cultural immersion can deliver measurable learning outcomes while supporting a wide range of student capabilities.
