Authors: Johnson Vhusumuzu Ziyaduma, Magis Exchange Coordinator, and Maria Trenda, IAJU Communication Coordinator

Recently, the Magis Exchange 7 graduation ceremony was held, marking a significant milestone for the Magis Exchange community. The event brought together 19 graduating students, GECC professors (Global Environmental Citizenship Course), and coordinators in a heartfelt celebration of achievement and growth. During the ceremony, students shared their experiences completing the program, highlighting the impact of the GECC course in shaping their global perspectives and environmental awareness. Diplomas were handed out to the graduates, celebrating their hard work and dedication throughout the program.

The graduating students represented regions from across the Kircher Network, AUSJAL, JHEASA, AJCU-AM, and AJCU-AP, reflecting the truly global nature of the program and the interconnectedness of Jesuit higher education institutions worldwide.

As part of the ceremony, students were encouraged to join the Magis Exchange Alumni Network to continue their engagement with Jesuit networks and other former exchange participants. This initiative aims to foster connections and promote collaboration among graduates, allowing them to draw from the rich heritage of Jesuit education and forge meaningful partnerships for future projects.

The Magis 7 cohort continues to thrive, and we are excited to see our graduates embark on their next adventures, embodying the values and principles instilled during their time in the program—especially what they learned through the Global Environmental Citizenship Course (GECC). We congratulate all the graduates and warmly welcome them to the growing Magis alumni community!
