UWC (United World Colleges) is a global education movement with the mission to make education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future.

UWC comprises a network of 18 schools and colleges on four continents and a system of volunteer-run national selection committees in more than 150 countries. Most schools focus on the 16-19 age group, with some also catering to younger students. Additionally, UWC offers short courses, which are shorter UWC educational experiences.
UWC offers a challenging educational experience to a deliberately diverse group of students who come from over 150 different countries, and from a wide range of cultural, socio-economic, religious and educational backgrounds. By living and learning together, our students make friends from all over the world, and gain a deeper understanding of different ways of thinking.

UWC places a high value on experiential learning, community service and outdoor activities, which complement high academic standards delivered through the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) and lower years programmes.
Since its foundation in 1962, UWC has inspired a global network of almost 60,000 alumni who can be found in every corner of the world. Each graduate follows a different path, based on their interests and talents. But each carries the UWC ethos with them, making large and small changes through courageous action, personal example and selfless leadership.
