China Education Initiative

Learn about the China Education Initiative, get free pizza:

The China Education Initiative (CEI) is an innovative non-profit organization, supported by the Ford Foundation, that addresses educational inequality in low-income, indigenous minority communities in rural parts of China that have not, as yet, seen the rapid economic growth that the coastal areas have experienced in the past two decades (www.chinaeducationinitiative.org).

With mentorship from:

• Princeton in Asia
• The Woodrow Wilson School’s China and the World Program (CWP)

And working in partnership with:

• Tsinghua University & Peking University
• The Chinese Communist Youth League’s (CYL) ‘Graduate Student Volunteer Program’

CEI operates with the approval of the Chinese central government and is the first and only volunteer organization in China to pair graduates from top universities in the US and China in a long-term cross-cultural service initiative.

We are now recruiting promising future leaders to serve as fully-sponsored CEI Teaching Fellows for 2009-2010. We invite you to join us for an on-campus information session.

There will be a free pizza lunch meeting with Vincent Ng, who will provide information about CIE; explore the possibilities of teaching in a village in rural China.
