The 3rd Incheon Global Citizenship Education Festival was held on October 29th and 30th at the Songdo Convensia. The slogan for this year was "Read, Walk, Write-Based Education for Global Citizenship, Focusing on Peace and Coexistence in Incheon." This year’s event featured 80 booths run by various schools, organizations, and companies. SUNY Korea was represented by two student clubs: the International Student Association and Thé Former.
The International Student Association played a guessing game and handed out refreshments, while Thé Former held a perfume making workshop. The clubs shared information about SUNY Korea and what it's like to be a student. Many interested high school students and parents stopped by to hear more about our unique program.
The Global Citizenship Education Festival is held every year to give a global citizen experience to the people of Incheon. The majority of the attendees are elementary, middle, and high school students, along with people from influential organizations such as UNESCO. This festival is important because it allows people to broaden their horizons about the world and lets students start networking with people in different fields.
