APRIL 20, 2024
Transformation Through Innovation
100% Student-Led
Our team of student committees spends a full year planning and organizing every detail of our annual summit, from speakers and decorations to hospitality and social media.
Real-World Issues
GIS attendees will explore the world’s most pressing issues through enriching discussion led by speakers with diverse specialties.
Empowers Attendees
Our solution-based discussion empowers attendees to take a stand in local and global communities and to join the fight for a better world.
Our Mission
GIS was founded by a group of students twelve years ago, and although the Summit has taken varied forms throughout its lifetime, the generations of students who have led this event have held true to the Summit’s original mission of turning awareness into action.
United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
The foundation of GIS is the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs, each of which targets a societal issue and provides solution-based dialogue to address it.
