Student to World courses are created by global youth interns, ages 11-23, in our Content Creation Lab. During this semester-long internship, interns meet virtually in cross-national teams and design content to educate global peers on the issues that matter to them most.

9. What are media releases for, and what will you do with the submitted pictures and stories?
At Global Nomads Group, we collect media (photographs, artwork, quotes, etc.) from program participants to highlight the youth and educators engaging in our courses. This allows us to showcase our work in articles, social media, and on our website. A Media Release is a legal document that allows organizations and companies to use an individual’s name, image, quotes, or other details for marketing or promotional purposes, and is an important tool for protecting the privacy and rights of individuals. You are not required to complete a Global Nomads Group Media Release to participate in our programs.
