An innovative "digital service learning" program at UC Santa Cruz. GIIP is engaged in creating a new generation of "info activists", committed to advancing social justice, democratizing globalization and building social entrepreneurship in civil society.
GIIP trains students in the tools of information and communication technologies (ICT), and then places "infosavvy" interns as social advocates with partner organizations. Once placed, GIIPers complete ICT projects in collaboration with a partner organization.
