"the most important thing that i learned from the program was not found in the classroom, but rather in the atmosphere. i learned how important it is to be accepting of other people, regardless of who they are or where they come from. that level of inclusion is unfortunately not found in the United States, and it was a huge breat..."
Blake B Washington University in St. Louis
"I gained an understanding of climate change that I didn't have the same way before--actually being in a place that has experienced great warming and extreme weather of all sorts is very different from learning about it in classes. I also gained some really close friends, colleagues, and a sense of direction for my future. "
A student University of Colorado - Boulder
"I gained a lot of independence regarding academic research. The independent study project was a great challenge and gave me the opportunity to speak with many experts in healthcare!"
A student Tulane University
"This experience was nothing short of life-changing. The nature of a program like this is to learn as much about yourself as you do the environment & climate change. Why is this? The nature of a program like this attracts independent, curious, and ambitious students who don't want a typical abroad experience, and brings them to o..."

"It's hard to put into writing all that I learned and gained from studying abroad. I gained relationships with my peers that changed the way I view life, friendship, and myself. I learned about the regional environment/ecologies in the context of the community. I grew in my Spanish language skills and I grew as an individual. I g..."
A student Brandeis University
"It was the most worthwhile experience of my life. I learned firsthand the intricacies of Humanitarian action, including its shortcomings, and how different NGOs are working to bridge the gaps. Additionally, the internship component allowed me to actually work on doing so myself. "
Jiana S Brandeis University
"I learned a lot both about the scientific and political sides of conservation which was very worthwhile. I really enjoyed the independent study project even though it was very challenging I learned a ton by doing it and felt proud of my results. I found it somewhat difficult to be in the tropics and move around so much without h..."
