The Global UWC Organisation

The UWC global headquarters are in London. The International Board and the UWC Council are responsible for the organisation’s management. The international Office is where the activities of various commissions and the almost 150 UWC national committees is coordinated.

The schools themselves are largely independent and are usually headed by supervisory bodies. At the international level, the individual schools are coordinated by the UWC International Office. The President of the UWC movement is Queen Nūr of Jordan and the honorary president was Nobel Peace Prize laureate Nelson Mandela.

At the country level, the respective national committees are responsible for the selection of students and the funding of scholarships. They also represent the interests of UWC and provide an active network for alumni.

 
Thanks to UWC, young people are being trained to be the international bridge builders our world needs more than ever.
