Our Mission

We exist to make global opportunities accessible for all
We create pathways for students to thrive globally by providing fellowships, equipping them through workshops, and promoting sustainable travel that strengthens communities and cultures.

What We Do

The Ambrose Conrad McAuley (ACM) Fellowship provides funding opportunities for students to pursue their studies abroad. We empower aspiring leaders to gain valuable international experience and a global perspective.

We believe that the right preparation can unlock the full potential of experiences abroad. That’s why we offer comprehensive student workshops designed to equip students with the skills, knowledge, and mindset needed to thrive during their time abroad.

Our sustainability programming encourages students to be conscious global citizens - environmentally, socially, and culturally. We provide practical tools for responsible travel and encourage critical engagement with the places our Fellows and participants call home during their time abroad.
