What We Did

The 2016 GIN conference at George Washington University, Funger Hall 
Last March, our 2016 conference equipped hundreds of high school students and teachers from across the US with the tools necessary to discuss and question the world's most divisive issues, ranging from the importance of girls' education to sustainable development and the Syrian refugee crisis.
Highlights from this conference:
  • the GIN art competition
  • amazing keynotes such as Daniella Zalcman
  • an engaging panel discussion about the Syrian refugee crisis
Special thanks to:
  • Mr. Rudy Becker
  • Ms. Kerri Redding
  • Ms. Allie Wilding
  • The WIS journalism and photography & film classes
