The Global Studies Diploma Program is a 2 year interdisciplinary program of study for students interested in developing leadership and communication skills with a global perspective. Seniors take the Global Studies Seminar and complete a year-long capstone project exploring a global issue which culminates in a presentation to the community and the public. This page will be frequently updated as I complete each step of this process.

​My essential question is: How does global trade and colonialism shape the farming practices and the cultural food of communities worldwide? This connects to many of the guiding global studies themes, including the environment, globalization, and art/culture. My goal of the project is to be able to look at individual case studies, and to extrapolate from these to make broader connections about the world. In doing this, I will be able to look at specifics which are often easier to research and conceptualize, but then can also analyze the greater impact.
