The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship (CPGC) cooperates with students and faculty in all majors to advance justice, inclusion, and sustainability by linking experiential learning with the needs and desires of off-campus partners. This linking occurs through student fellowships that support systematic, ongoing professional development coupled with internships during the summer and throughout the academic year. Beyond these fellowships, the CPGC also supports community-engaged courses, research, and scholarship. This work - at the heart of positive peace-building and critical global citizenship - occurs in Ardmore, in the Philadelphia Region, and all around the world.
For service and advocacy opportunities in Ardmore, as well as student volunteer clubs and community-based work study, visit the Marilou Allen Office of Service and Community Collaboration.
