- New York Student Deadline CLOSED
- Los Angeles Student Deadline November 19, 2008
Every year, the Korea Society, in conjunction with the Los Angeles-based Pacific Century Institute, coordinates Project Bridge: a yearlong intercultural outreach program for high school juniors and seniors. For Project Bridge 2008-2009, sixteen students will be selected from New York City and Los Angeles to take part in a yearlong series of bi-weekly meetings, a weekend retreat and culminate in a joint 10-day study tour to Korea. The participants will meet regularly for educational workshops focusing on topics such as Korean language, history, folktales, architecture, modern Korea and the 1992 riots in Los Angeles-known in Korean as Sa-I-Gu. The objective of these activities is to help the participants gain insight into Korea, learn leadership skills and develop intercultural understanding. The highlight of Project Bridge is a fully subsidized ten-day study tour in Korea which is held in April during the Department of Education's Spring Recess and includes visits to historical sites, the Demilitarized Zone and a home stay with Korean high school students.
Project Bridge 2008-2009 is now accepting applications. High school students who will be juniors or seniors during the 2008-2009 school year are eligible to apply. Space is available for eight students from New York City and eight from Los Angeles. A position is also available to a New York City high school teacher interested in working as a group leader for the program.
