In my own words:
Completing the Global & Intercultural Engagement Honour is one of the best extracurricular choices I have made at Western. It encouraged me to further my knowledge and cultural understanding by taking courses and workshops that focus on global topics and diversity, and by volunteering for international programs and events. As a volunteer, I was provided with a safe environment to get involved on campus. I have made some of my best friends from all around the world through this program!
