Study Abroad for underserved Youth
Under the Seattle Strong education campaign (in partnership with President Obama's 100,000 Strong Initiative to dramatically increase the number of Americans studying in China over the next four years) OneWorld Now!, the Confucius Institute of the State of Washington, and Seattle Public Schools joined Mayor McGinn in Seattlle's sister-city, Chongqing, China, to create study abroad scholarships and expand sister school relationships between the two cities. After a successful meeting with Mayor McGinn and the Chongqing Municipal Education Commission, the Seattle Strong team announced 40 new scholarships for underserved Seattle Public High School students to spend three weeks in Chongqing this summer. The students will live with Chinese host families, study Chinese and participate in local service projects. OneWorld Now! will provide a three week immersion Chinese language and leadership camp (thanks to generous funding from STARTALK) prior to the three week Chongqing trip for students this summer.
