Program attendance and participation
The intense 4-week summer program is tentatively set to run from June 28 through July 26, 2023.
There will be a virtual, hybrid, or in-person component to the summer program.
Students will implement their community engagement plans when the summer program is over, and they will also get assistance, training, and networking opportunities for their careers, including the chance to join the MEPI Alumni network, which has 2,000 members.
The MENA area may host a competitive follow-on Accelerator Workshop.
