Headquarter of Government Institutions, pulsing heart of American politics, the capital city of United States is the place where main American governance decisions and global guidances are determined.
Core of international financial institutions, the city is also of pivotal relevance in defining world’s economic policies.
Also considered the ultimate international capital city, Washington boasts the broadest concentration of institutions, international organizations, analysis and research centers.
The WiP Study Mission Washington D.C. is addressed to university students and young professionals who want to examine the current politics and the constitutional system of the United States in depth.
The twofold objective is, on one side, to analyze from the inside the system of «Checks and Balances» between the legislative and the executive branches, which constitute the heart of the U.S. democracy. To do so, the participants will be immersed in 5 days of visits and meetings.
On the other, the stay in Washington D.C. will offer the chance to penetrate the global guidelines that the multilateral Organizations set up.
Thanks to the online courses and the individual preparation, the participants will approach the meetings in Washington D.C. with the proper analytical instruments to identify the structural functioning of the U.S. democracy and its critical elements.
