For the second consecutive year, a record-number of 30 Pace University students (22 Dyson students) were accepted into the 2023 class of the United Nations Academic Impact and Millennium Campus Network (MCN) Fellowship Program. In this semester-long leadership program focused on making a social impact, students convene with the cohort of Fellows from their institution to lead projects that advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals—a list of 17 objectives, focusing on areas such as social justice, sustainability, poverty, equity, education, economic growth, and all 10 UNAI Principles. While leading projects on their own campuses and in their own communities, students in the program also collaborate with Fellows at peer institutions around the world, creating a global network of students working toward a better world by addressing problems facing societies around the globe.
