A key feature of life after their UWC experience is that alumni evolve into what could be called ‘responsible citizens’ in their own, quite diverse environments. In many cases they remain engaged for the rest of their lives in socially valuable projects, either directly through their profession, or indirectly through voluntary activities. The majority of Belgian UWC alumni return home after UWC to develop their talents locally and contribute to Belgian society. Others, however, choose to spread their wings internationally.
