The Global Fellowship Program was launched for young people to gain an understanding of what it will take to compete in, and contribute to the new global economy. We interviewed four young students who visited Brazil, India and China as a part of this programme, wherein they went to a local school, lived with local host parents and worked with a multinational organisation. As a Global Fellow, Louise visited Brazil for six weeks, where she worked with KPMG. She talks about the high ambition and commitment levels of the Brazilian students she studied with, and on the business side of the experience she reveals how the young generation now understands businesses of today are becoming more and more sustainability/csr focussed, and carry out pioneering work involving the local communities.
