Come learn more about this spring opportunity with spring break travel, developed in partnership with Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ), National University of Singapore (NUS), and as part of the Jeb E. Brooks School’s Global Policy Exchange Lab. This collaborative online international learning (COIL) and community-based global learning (CBGL) course allows a unique exchange as highlighted the photo essays from our 2025 program. The program invites Cornell students to explore the complexities of education policy and practice in the United States and Ecuador with students and faculty from USFQ and NUS as well as with teachers, administrators, and policy makers in both contexts.

The Future of International Order: Rupture, Resistance, and Prospects for Peace
September 10, 2026
12:00 pm
Clark Hall, 700
Global politics are undergoing a radical rupture. The post-WWII rules-based international order, which prohibits most uses of military force, provides collective security, and respects human rights, has always been imperfect. But today several prominent governments appear to be explicitly repudiating these norms. Wars in Ukraine and the Middle East suggest that great powers like Russia and the United States are seeking power primarily through military force and economic coercion rather than through incentives or persuasion. Middle powers such as Canada have responded by calling for new coalitions and strategies to counter aggression. What will these changes mean for the future of war and peace? In this panel, four distinguished scholars with regional expertise in Africa, East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Europe will discuss different visions for the future of international order, with a focus on prospects for developing non-violent means of resolving conflict.

September 15, 2026
4:45 pm
Mann Library, 102
Find out more about our winter program exploring the Tiputini Biological Station in the Yasuni National Park in the Amazon in Ecuador. Tropical forests have a stunning array of diversity, and adaptations to strong species interactions, while species in alpine ecosystems have highly-specialized adaptations to challenging environmental conditions. To study this gradient, students will embark on a field course spanning multiple biogeographic regions in Ecuador, a region that boasts some the highest degrees of species diversity and endemism. This program will involve travel in January to the Amazon followed by synthesizing those field observations fduring the first seven weeks of spring upon return.
