The Archway Partnership, a Public Service and Outreach unit at the University of Georgia (UGA), has established an innovative and thriving partnership with UGA’s Terry College of Business Institute for Leadership Advancement (ILA) through years of collaboration. During the ILA course, students are paired with community partners across Georgia to address critical community projects, several focused on significant change. These partnerships are facilitated through Archway, which serves as the conduit between real-world challenges and students in the ILA program. Through these interactions, students learn to navigate working with clients, learn about Georgia communities, apply classroom content in real-world settings, and clients gain a fresh perspective on ways to change and adapt.
