The document discusses strategies for implementing purposeful global internship programs (GIPs) in Asia Pacific. It recommends focusing GIPs on the tourism and skill development/education industries. For tourism, interns could help promote countries and increase inbound/outbound travel. For education, interns could teach languages/skills and help develop curricula. Implementing entities include developing countries in South/Southeast Asia. Training is needed to understand these markets and industries. Experiences would develop intercultural leadership as interns address real needs. The strategies aim to boost national economies and develop human capital through meaningful internships.
