International Education Week (IEW), which celebrates the benefits and importance of international education and exchange worldwide, took place this year from November 15–19, 2021. 

To celebrate the work that YES students and alumni did during IEW this year, the YES program asked students and alumni to share their IEW experiences through videos in the IEW 2021 Reels Challenge. Students and alumni submitted videos showcasing their host culture, cuisines, clothing, traditions, and more! 

Below, watch some of the wonderful Reels that YES students made for IEW 2021. You can also watch the videos on the YES YouTube page.
