This past year @TheGES brought together 60 undergrads from nearly every @NorthwesternU school for a unique year of learning & social impact, culminating with the #GES2021 Summit in April. Learn more about the Global Engagement Summit here: https://t.co/MEb3SvxztU

On a final note, here’s a note to changemakers:

“People often overestimate what they can do in one year, and underestimate what they can do in ten.”

[The Global Engagement Summit @TheGES]

As #GES2021 wraps up, delegates and staff members wait to hear from David Simas (@david_simas) — this year’s closing speaker! Among all his cool posts: He’s the CEO of the @ObamaFoundation & served in Barack Obama’s administration as the White House Director of Political Affairs

[The Global Engagement Summit @TheGES]

Simas says he dealt with imposter syndrome “every day [he] worked in the White House.”

So he had a ritual. Every single day he walked into the building and every single night when he left, he would repeat the same thing to himself:

Remember who you are, and who you represent.

[The Global Engagement Summit @TheGES]

Legal services, policy advocation, and education are just some of the ways delegates are specifically addressing the issues their projects’ tackle through their Results Frameworks!

[The Global Engagement Summit @TheGES]

Last day of the #GES2021 Summit! Right now the delegates are in Joanna Cohen’s workshop: “Assessing & Sustaining Your Impact,” to give delegates tools to produce markers of progress to sustain their projects in the future!

[The Global Engagement Summit @TheGES]

The “Results Framework” is a super interesting concept Joanna is currently explaining - “Ask yourself the simple question: How? How are you going to contribute to your overall goal?”

[The Daily Northwestern @thedailynu]

GES keynote speaker event, open to all Northwestern students, will feature @ReshmaSaujani, founder of @GirlsWhoCode.

“The fight never ends” is a great note to end this Keynote with Reshma! We’re so grateful Reshma and Alexis for giving us their time today, this is an amazing start to what will be a spectacular summit!

[The Global Engagement Summit @TheGES]
