“IC21 gave me the important gift of learning how to better understand the world in which we live while developing my leadership, public speaking, and writing skills. Through participating in Model United Nations with IC21, I learned to listen with curiosity, to stay open-minded and humble, and to sift through the evidence as presented. I have learned that the nations and people of our world resist easy explanation and that an engagement in my local community translates to the ability to begin a exploration of a world beyond Jackson, Wyoming, the States and my own culture.
