LSI believes education must be international.
- Learn: understand problems faced by societies
- Serve: take action to make a difference and create your own solutions
- International: global citizenship—today’s students are the world’s hope
It’s a small world with big problems.
You can solve them. We can help.
What can I do as a:
We work with students who want to change the world. Become a social entrepreneur and design projects that affect the lives of others as well as your own.
Global problems belong to everyone. They require lots of people working together to solve them and commitment more than specialized knowledge. This means that anyone can make a difference. Anyone like YOU.

Q: How do you bring the global issues into your classroom in a meaningful way?
A: Challenge your students to join you in becoming global citizens. Join an LSI program and work along side your student, either with the Fellows program through the school year or overseas on a LearnServe Trip in the summer. Both programs create student-teacher teams who respond together to the big problems that face our world.

How do you turn students into future leaders? First they must become responsive global citizens. This requires learning about people’s differences in order to understand how those differences affect the problems we face globally. Then they can address them.
Service is a core part of LSI’s philosophy. Everyone learns better when they are directly involved with issues. LSI’s project-based learning approach inspires and transforms participants and schools.
