Harvard Undergraduate Global Education Movement

INSPIRING TOMORROW’S LEADERS

Since 2017 based in Cambridge, Mass. at Harvard University

A student-driven movement at Harvard University, hosting international conferences and initiatives to empower future global leaders through innovation, education, and real-world impact.

THE HUGEM Mission: Educate, Empower, and Inspire

HUGEM ignites a passion for learning and leadership in students of all ages across the world, empowering them to tackle pressing global challenges. Through our Innovation Conferences, Leadership Workshops, and Philanthropic Initiatives, we cultivate creative problem-solving, foster cross-cultural collaboration, and provide hands-on experiences. Rooted in the spirit of innovation and learning at Harvard, we equip the next generation with the knowledge, skills, and vision to enact meaningful change, shaping a future driven by inclusivity and global impact.

OUR WORK

Our movement has expanded across a dozen countries spanning three continents, uniting strong educational partners in a shared commitment to empowering the next generation. Over the past year, we have hosted summer camps in Vietnam and the Philippines, led after-school STEM workshops in Armenia, organized innovation conferences in Singapore and the United Arab Emirates, led track-based learning in China, hosted an on-campus conference for students from Taiwan, and supported local public schools in the Boston area.

Transformative Experiences

At HUGEM, we believe that education is a catalyst for change, and our initiatives have empowered thousands of students worldwide. From fostering innovative solutions to real-world challenges to equipping students with critical STEM and leadership skills, our programs leave a lasting impact. Participants in our international conferences have gone on to pursue social innovation projects, apply their new technical skills in post-secondary schools, and implement change in their communities inspired by their HUGEM experience. Through our partnerships with schools, universities, and global organizations, we continue to create opportunities that shape the leaders of tomorrow and allow students to keep dreaming bigger.
