Welcoming International Students

This spring, Sister Cities welcomed high school and college students from three different continents.  High school delegations from Taiyuan, China; Mendoza, Argentina; Belfast, Northern Ireland and Magdeburg, Germany all enjoyed staying with local host families, attending school with their host, touring local attractions and meeting elected officials during their stay in Music City. A university group from Mendoza also participated in a two-week exchange at Belmont University where they studied business and entrepreneurship. Students from Belfast's Ulster University came on a first-time exchange to study our Civil Rights history.  More than 50 Nashville families were involved in hosting and volunteering during these exchanges.
