USA: UNAOC - EF Summer School

Deadline: 31 May 2013


A groundbreaking partnership

The UNAOC - EF Summer School is the result of a collaboration between two organizations committed to bridging cultural divides - the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations and EF Education First.

EF Education First was founded in 1965 with the mission to break down the barriers of language, culture and geography that divide us. Now the world's largest private education company, EF offers programs centered around language learning, travel, and cultural exchange.

From Berlin to Beijing, Moscow to Mexico City, Dubai to Denver, EF operates 450 schools and offices in over 60 countries. To date, EF has helped millions of people to learn a new language, discover the world or earn an academic degree.
