Global PACT

Global Partnerships for Activism and Cross-Cultural Training

Northeastern University Local Trainings

Learn. Act. Lead.

Global PACT -- is a unique experience for students interested in solving real community problems in real, practical ways! This intensive peer-to-peer training program will enhance your ability to identify the root causes of larger community problems, create viable solutions, and establish grassroots organizations.

But the experience is even more than that: you will learn valuable leadership skills, sharpen your public speaking skills and become schooled in action research. All of these skills can be applied to your course work, to your future career, and to your role as an engaged, educated citizen.

And Global PACT is fun! You will create lasting friendships with other like-minded students. Global PACT NU represents a vibrant network of students who continue to put Global PACT's lessons to use in creative ways right here in Boston. Learn the skills - Act on what you have learned - then Lead others to do the same.

Local trainings happen right here on campus. Keep an eye on this site for training sign- up and schedules. Questions? Ask Professor Denise Horn (d.horn@neu.edu).

But why limit your experience to Boston? Try a Global PACT experience abroad! Every summer Northeastern University partners with Global PACT, Inc., an organization dedicated to developing global citizens. Go to Thailand to work with a world-class organization dedicated to ending human trafficking in the Golden Triangle. Work with students in South Africa to end poverty and discrimination. Experience the possibilities of ending ethnic strife in the Balkans. And we're adding more programs all the time.
