Try This - Culture Exchange

Now that I'm no longer in charge of any student missions initiatives, I can actually impart some ideas for mission, culture and leadership without feeling like I'm spilling the beans. Like anything else on this blog - take it and use it if you want.

What: A Culture Exchange
Why: Because the world is full of different cultures. The more effective your students get at navigating cultural differences, the more successful they will be in life.

Details: two or more teams of students
doesn't matter where they live or come from
share their favorite:
music
food
clothing style
etc
bring something from your context that is unique

Deeper: talk about worldview
What are some significant elements of their culture that symbolize how they think life works?
