Collaboration with
Industry Experts
WGI collaborates with academic and governmental partners to provide capacity-building training for students, professionals, and practitioners seeking to broaden their understanding of good governance and learn how best to meet the various challenges facing local communities today.
Our Methodology
and Approach
Our methodology combines lectures, seminars, and experiential learning opportunities. Participants learn from the best — outstanding faculty members as well as industry experts and practitioners where they work. Program participants might visit the Capitol or State Department in Washington, DC, and meet with legislators, diplomats, or other individuals engaged in business, arts, new media, or other fields of specialization.
