Why do a Multicultural Village Program?
Many essential life skills such as communication, being assertive, negotiation or collaboration are sometimes not learned until some type of conflict calls for us to learn them. Multicultural Village is a place where you can learn these life skills related to peace building, violence prevention, conflict transformation, coping with your anger, and being a remarkable global citizen, you will also meet new friends from diverse backgrounds, travel, do collaborative service learning projects and make your mark on the world.
Most Villages (not all) are 3 weeks long. Some are residential and some are day Villages. If it is residential, you will live with other Villagers and several adults who are experts/practitioners in the field of Peace and Conflict resolution. The adults will be called "Village Elders" and you will be called a "Villager" to model the positive aspects of traditional village life.
The Village is a place where you can discover that your strengths and courage go beyond national, cultural or global patterns and habits. The Village is a place where you can take a chance to stretch your mind while making lifelong friends, learning life skills, finding your voice, learning to trust, getting and giving respect, creating a global impact and having tons of fun.
