I strongly believe that the need to develop a pool of leaders that feel empowered, understand their own agency, and the value and challenges of democracy, sustainability, and social justice is most critical given the uncertain and complex world we live in today. Being an educator at UWC gives me the opportunity to facilitate that process!
