There is a popular adage that states, “Think globally, act locally.” We at the PEOPLE Programme strive to “think and act globally on behalf of people locally.”
The PEOPLE Programme (Public Elected Officials and others for Policy Leadership and Exchange) brings about international exchange of elected public officials, scholars, journalists, business leaders, labor leaders, foundation officers, policy and leadership students, and others from communities in Europe, the United States, and Africa.
The purpose of this unique exchange process is to foster greater understanding of the way alternative governments, labor, industry, media and education systems operate. PEOPLE Programme administrators then help use this information to craft program and policy innovations that help foster greater cooperation among institutional systems and affected citizens from various nations.
Our primary focus is on identifying ways in which residents of inner city communities can forge relationships with people from other nations to advance mutually beneficial programs and policies.
