to Honduras, Houston, TX, and Hartford, VT. Please find the application attached,
and see below for more details.
Please also note that the application is due at 11:59pm on Thursday, October

____________
WHAT IS DGLP?
DGLP stands for Dartmouth Global Leadership Program. DGLP is a student-run
organization
designed to prepare Dartmouth undergraduates with useful leadership skills focusing
on cultural competency and global awareness. We aim to take our academic learning
experiences outside of the classroom. By giving students agency to plan projects
with each other and facilitate connections with stable community partners, DGLP
creates the opportunity to blend learning with action and passion with practicality.
WHAT DOES THIS ACTUALLY MEAN?
We are forming three teams, each with two team leaders. Each team spends two
terms in preparation, consulting with the communities with whom they will be working
and then planning projects that can be delivered on-site during spring break.
