Student Profiles
All students and alumni/ae of the Future Generations Graduate School represent communities. Throughout the two-year program, students complete an applied practicum (thesis) project that focuses on a core question and addresses a local priority. The practicum emphasizes applied learning within communities. As students are learning, so also are their communities. These Student Profiles focus on the work of students in their communities and provide an overview of each student's applied practicum projects.
To date, Future Generations has graduated three classes of students and matriculated students from 22 countries. A summary table of students and their practicum projects is provided below. Follow the links for more detailed profiles of each graduate (under construction).
