The idea of founding MEET THE WORLD: College Counseling & Beyond, as well as its program DISCOVER CHINA was aimed to empower young residents of both Laredos and the Texas Rio Grande Valley.
We believe that an effort to expose the youth to opportunities beyond South Texas can have great benefits, both to students and their larger communities. |
Mission
The DISCOVER CHINA is a cultural program that aspires to expand the cultural horizons of participants. Through engagement in meaningful, hands-on experiences and by promoting reflection, we facilitate rigorous understanding and consequential appreciation of other cultures. vision
MEET THE WORLD and its program DISCOVER CHINA operate in accordance with the values of reflection, respect, and active engagement in society. What is a Global Citizen?
Being a Global Citizen is not merely understanding and appreciating cultural differences. It is also a state of mind where the individual is aware that our actions influence people all over the world. Therefore, a Global Citizen assumes responsibility beyond his/her own community and considers the rights and interests of all human beings. |
