Make global exchange possible for everybody in Kalamazoo
Global Ties Kalamazoo (formerly Colleagues International) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization originally created as a seasonal exchange program within the WMU School of Social Work in 1971. We have continued to evolve and expand beyond our original scope to become the professional citizen diplomacy organization we know today. Hosting international youth workers is the longest-standing legacy of our organization, and we would like to extend the opportunity of a meaningful international experiential education experience to our local leaders and up-and-coming leaders in youth development in the years to come.

Make exchange in Kalamazoo truly for everybody. Through exchange, we explore our shared humanity. Our work is about harnessing the energy that we all find when we learn new things, meet new people, and grapple with the massive challenges that we face – leading to life-changing moments and idea generation.
