We couldn't be more proud of these two young ladies!
Yesterday, Zamiya, a senior at Waukesha South, and Teresa, a senior at Waukesha North, presented to the Waukesha Rotarians on their participation in the 2022 World Affairs Seminar held this summer at Carroll University. The two attended a week-long camp and learned and talked with guest speakers and professionals about Reimagining Global Health and Wellness.
The two shared memories and mentioned how this remarkable and eye-opening experience was right in their backyard! They were able to work with delegates from all around the world to define issues and problem areas. They participated in field trips and explored technology and other influential factors between climate change and global health and wellness.
Are you or your student interested in global issues, climate change, or building a solid portfolio for college? The World Affairs Seminar will again be held at Carroll University from June 24 - June 30, 2023. Students between the ages of 15-18 and who will be a sophomore, junior, or senior next year are eligible to apply as a delegate at www.worldaffairsseminar.org/WAS2023
