BE THE CHANGE
The UWC short course in Dilijan is an educational summer program that brings together young people from diverse backgrounds to engage in collaborative learning, community building and problem solving. It is held on the beautiful UWC Dilijan campus and will allow participants to have an intense mini UWC experience.
Through living together, learning together and taking on a series of dynamic challenges and activities, young people will develop the skills necessary to navigate some of today’s complex issues.

- Critically explore identities
- Expand their understanding of the complexities of local and global issues
