First in the Family: Stories of Resilience, Leadership, and Transformation Across Borders

First in the Family: Stories of Resilience, Leadership, and Transformation Across Borders showcases the lived experiences of first-generation students whose journeys span cultures, continents, and disciplines. Through narratives of perseverance and identity, contributors share how they navigated barriers of poverty, migration, discrimination, and uncertainty to achieve educational success and leadership. From classrooms and research labs to communities and cultural spaces, their voices highlight the profound ways education transforms not only individuals but also families and societies. Both inspiring and instructive, this volume is an invaluable resource for students, educators, and policymakers seeking to understand and support the first-generation experience in a global context.
