Our Strength Lies in Our Diversity 

Our Mission is to foster international understanding by empowering our residents to become the next generation of globally-minded leaders as members of a diverse and inclusive lifelong community.

Our Vision is a world in which I-House Residents and Alumni bring their leadership and cross-cultural understanding with them to their respective fields–which are as diverse as politics, business, education, law, science, journalism, the arts, and more–in all regions of the world.

We believe in leadership that is informed by three core values:

• Respect: Treating others with dignity, regardless of differences.
• Empathy: The ability to relate to the perspectives of others.
• Moral Courage: Standing up for what’s right, even in the face of adversity.
