Thematic Focus
In a worldwide survey, Cultural Vistas solicited feedback from our extensive alumni network regarding the global challenges that most impact their communities and lives. Our alumni urged us to focus on four key areas in our work, around which we center our program activities:
- Climate Action
- Health & Safety
- Intercultural Competency, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (ICDEI)
- Prospering Democratic Societies & Institutions
Prospering Democratic Societies & Institutions encompasses the belief that it is our responsibility to ensure that structures and forms of political expression that form the foundations of a free democratic society should be protected and supported. Civil society engagement is a cornerstone of many of our exchanges, and we encourage political dialogue and intercultural understanding, both within and across national borders. This is loosely oriented on United Nations SDG #16, “Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions”.
