About the CGA<br />

The Center for Global Affairs (CGA), within the NYU <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Continuing</strong> <strong>and</strong> Pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />

<strong>Studies</strong> (NYU-SCPS), facilitates change by educating <strong>and</strong> inspiring our community to<br />

become global citizens capable <strong>of</strong> identifying <strong>and</strong> implementing solutions to pressing<br />

global challenges. We believe that the development <strong>of</strong> solutions to global problems must<br />

be informed by an underst<strong>and</strong>ing that the world’s challenges are not merely challenges<br />

for <strong>and</strong> among states, but also challenges for <strong>and</strong> among non-state actors, urban <strong>and</strong> rural<br />

communities, regional organizations, <strong>and</strong> traditional diplomatic outlets.<br />

Through rigorous graduate <strong>and</strong> continuing education programs <strong>and</strong> public events, we<br />

prepare global citizens who are at home in all <strong>of</strong> these environments—<strong>and</strong> thus effective<br />

agents <strong>of</strong> change.<br />
