Reflecting on 2024: A Year of Milestones. As 2024 comes to a close, we’re proud of the incredible milestones we’ve reached with the support of our donors, volunteers, faculty, staff and students. From hosting over 400 delegates at the UWC International Congress, reaching more than 85,000 alumni, and bringing the UWC community together for the Africa Regional Meeting - 2024 has been a significant year for UWC. None of this would have been possible without you. Your support has helped us continue delivering transformational education around the world, and for that, we are deeply grateful. As we step into 2025, we eagerly anticipate the opportunities the new year will bring. Visit uwc.org for more information.

UWC Red Cross Nordic was honoured to send a delegation of five students to the Nobel Peace Prize Forum and Exhibition in Oslo earlier this week.
