Our goal is to become a college with a sustainable infrastructure and a robust scholarship endowment fund that supports learning through innovative education and social transformation. *Funds raised to the scholarship endowment fund from alums, current families, and families of alums receive a special match for up to $1M.
UWC Costa Rica set out to build a new campus that could fulfill UWC Movement's vision to "make education a force to unite people, nations, and cultures for peace and a sustainable future" and exemplify UWC Costa Rica's commitment to sustainable development and climate action from a local to a global context.
The "We Are United" campaign aims to build a new campus reflecting UWC's vision of uniting people, nations, and cultures for peace and a sustainable future. The campaign emphasizes the impact of UWC's educational model, Costa Rica's commitment to climate change and sustainable conservation, and the Sustainability Framework of UWC Costa Rica as a guiding principle.
The New Campus is committed to supporting: Develop conscious global citizens who are empowered and inspired to take action. Co-create education for all people to advocate for peace, sustainability, and international understanding. Build a cutting-edge and innovative infrastructure to set a precedent for sustainable construction that, at its core, supports the reciprocity of energy efficiency and nature. Restore and protect 96 acres (39 hectares) for conservation and educational purposes.
