  • 3/8 WorldFest 2015

    WorldFest is an annual event celebrating the multiculturalism of the UConn community. The event incorporates cultural displays, performances, demonstrations and various other activities and information. WorldFest is a primarily student-led initiative with the International Student & Scholar Services office (ISSS) acting as advisor and facilitator. The event is organized and planned by representatives from a number of student cultural organizations with assistance and support from the ISSS office. This event is used as a tool to raise awareness and promote multicultural learning not only for students, faculty, and staff on campus, but also for members of the surrounding communities. As UConn continues to expand its global reach, WorldFest becomes an even more vital event in showcasing the global citizenship found on campus.
