he World Affairs Forum announced the 34 winners of the 2011 Future Global Leader Awards from the participating Fairfield County high schools, including three from Greenwich schools. The three from Greenwich are Nicole Narea of Convent of the Sacred Heart, Karna Nangia of Greenwich Academy, and Michelle Socher of Greenwich High School.
Established in 2009, the Future Global Leader Award program honors junior year students at each participating high school throughout Fairfield County who demonstrate outstanding leadership in understanding global issues and solving global problems. The high school principals designate their Future Global Leader based on this criterion.
The Future Global Leader Award winners have received certificates of award and are eligible to compete for the World Affairs Forum’s $10,000 merit college scholarship, which will be awarded to the outstanding Future Global Leader in Fairfield County this fall.
The World Affairs Forum is a non-profit, non-partisan community organization dedicated to expanding understanding of global affairs and America’s role in the world. The forum is an affiliate of the World Affairs Councils of America.
