Latest Activity: Feb 25, 2022

In partnership with Mercy Corps, Health Matters is an interactive, pilot educational videoconference program for high school students. Through it, Global Nomads Group (GNG) will bring young people from the U.S. and the Middle East on a virtual journey that equips students with a cross-cultural perspective on matters vital to health and well being. Topic areas range from fitness to nutrition to public health and peer pressure. This program will complement what these students are already learning in their health, science and social studies classes. Students will discuss vital health issues together, along with GNG health correspondents, and learn about different health risks and attitudes in both the U.S. and the Middle East. As a result, young people will become inspired to actively involve themselves in sustainable, healthy lifestyles due a social action project.On Friday, May 15th, GNG will connect LIVE with youth in Iraq and Gaza.
