About Dalton's Global Initiatives Program

Dalton Global Initiatives (DGI) provides students with small-group, intensive learning experiences that cultivate global leadership and promote understanding and responsibility in the world community. Through DGI, students are encouraged to:

Explore curricular themes deeply;
Take action for a more just global community;
Engage in multi-cultural and multi-perspective thought processes;
Achieve fluency in foreign languages, which facilitates full participation in the global experience;
Integrate themselves into new surroundings as members of local communities, and;
Appreciate different perspectives, traditions and practices of those around them.

To that end, DGI seeks to engage students in three integral forms of global experiences: academic collaborations, language and cultural immersion opportunities, and service learning programs. To apply for a 2023-2024 DGI program please click one of the applicable links.
