| We are excited to introduce the GIC 2023 Student Challenge content partner: UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency! UNHCR is a global organization dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights, and building a better future for refugees, forcibly displaced communities, and stateless people. |

| CIEE, in collaboration with UNHCR, invites student teams to present their best ideas to address a critical issue related to economic inclusion for forcibly displaced populations. Student team registration is open until March 31. The competition will take place April 17 – 22, 2023. Encourage your students to sign up! |
| The GIC 2023 Student Challenge builds upon the Model United Nations (MUN) Refugee Challenge, an initiative launched by UNHCR to encourage students worldwide to shape solutions for people forced to flee their homes. |
| Three Student Challenge teams will earn an all-expense paid trip to compete in the finals in Berlin at #GICBerlin23. Members of the winning team will receive CIEE-facilitated global internships in 2024. Their ideas will also be entered in the MUN Refugee Challenge and if selected as the winners of the MUN Challenge, they will be shared with policy makers and promoted on UNHCR’s social media channels. |
