Join WEF's Global Shapers Program to Boost Your Prospects for Study Abroad

HYDERABAD, India - April 4, 2019 - PRLog -- If there is one thing that can boost a student's profile in the eyes of admission's officers, it is their past experience with volunteer work, which demonstrates their ability to work with people of different backgrounds and a leadership role.

If you are looking for the perfect volunteering opportunity that will add weight to your college admissions essay while also allowing you to play a role in changing society for better while having a great time, the Global Shapers network which was launched by the World Economic Forum can be the best option for you.

What Is The Global Shapers Network And How Can It Help You Study Abroad?

The Global Shapers network is a global network of students and young professionals under the age of 30 who are committed to improving the world around them. The network is made of more than 5000 members spread across 400 cities worldwide. Each city group is called a local hub which is led by a curator who is elected by the hub members. Each hub is expected to take on projects and initiatives that help serve the local community and hub members interact with government officials in their community to make sure the plan they draw up is implemented

The Global Shapers network is made up of young members from all over the world. As a member you get to be connected to students from across the world and get a taste of intercultural relations even before you set foot in a foreign university. This program can give you the soft skills that are vital for surviving in a multi cultural environment. As a Global Shaper you will be able to connect with members from around the world at meetings conducted for World Economic Forum and annual shape events. You can also choose to meetup with other shapers at informal retreats and host shapers from other countries in your home when they come to visit your city or you can stay with them when you go for a visit.

In today's competitive world, soft skills such as the ability to work and study in a global, multi-cultural environment can be an important leveraging point when applying to abroad education (https://globaltree.in/services/abroad-education/), and the World Economic Forum's Global Shaper's Program is an excellent option in this regard.
