Tomorrow People Organization is proud to announce its second, annual, intercultural Encounters Study Abroad Summer Program, taking place from June 19- July 17 2006 in Zagreb and Zadar, Croatia. This year’s program is organized in collaboration with a student organization e-STUDENT, founded at the Graduate school of Business and Economics, University of Zagreb.
Intercultural Encounters is a comprehensive four-week program open to achieving undergraduate students from around the world. Through challenging university courses, exposing cultural activities, and revealing community service, the students will join our international and highly accredited faculty in a journey to explore the understanding of cultures, and the impact globalization has on different spheres of our lives. Participants will have the opportunity to meet other young achievers from around the world, and gain the leadership skills necessary for today’s global citizenship.
The university courses are an integral part of the program. The course on Multiculturalism is mandatory for all participants and in addition, each student takes one more course Sustainable Tourism, or International Relations—Diplomacy. These courses are taught in English and are fully accredited. The transcripts are issued by University of Zagreb—the oldest university in South East Europe.
The cost of the program is 2200 USD and includes: tuition, housing, breakfast, fieldtrips, workshops, community service projects and cultural activities. Due to our commitment to accessibility, we strive to minimize tuition in all of our non-profit programs.
To increase accessibility, a limited number of partial scholarships is available. Scholarships are primarily reserved for students from Eastern Europe and developing countries, but regardless of the place of origin, everyone is eligible. We encourage you to apply if you feel Intercultural Encounters is right for you.
Applications for Intercultural Encounters are now being accepted on a rolling admission basis and are reviewed weekly as long as space is available. We encourage everyone to apply early. To apply, students can complete the application online at
