The global flux in cultural goods, natural resources, and migrating people have given the traditional problems of poverty, hunger, and war greater complexity and urgency. Students at G-RAP learn to compose their thoughts more clearly, communicate them more effectively, and reflect on them more cooperatively so that they can be of use in the world.
