Humber’s Global Summer School (GSS) is back! July 4 – 21, Humber will be hosting students from across programs at Humber, other academic institutions around Canada and students from across the world, for three weeks. GSS gives students an opportunity to take a Humber class, and get academic elective credit for it, all while making friends around the world, and participating in fun, social activities, such as a boat party, trip to see Niagara Falls and the Blue Jays, global-related games, and more. GSS has so far hosted students from 35 different countries around the world, 33 different academic institutions, and 45 programs.
Every Faculty at Humber offers a course to pick from at GSS, and the FSCS course being offered this summer is once again Transformational Leadership and Advocacy, a class from our Community Development program. This course provides an overview of the principles and practices of transformational leadership, and a chance to reflect on the challenges facing leaders and to create plans for community action and development, giving students a pathway to lead and manage groups of people and organizations, implement communications strategies for social change, analyze their role as practitioners and advocates, and increase their competency as a transformative leader. Registration for GSS opens March 27 and closes May 12, 2023.
