What: Geography & Culture Experience
Around the World is an interactive day-trip for all age groups. Through this program, students are provided with an opportunity to participate in hands-on activities with an international perspective, while focusing on the geography and cultural studies of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Additionally, this program introduces students to basic and simple Appropriate Technologies. A simulated rural Global Village and Urban Slum are used as teaching tools to let people experience the lives of our brothers and sisters living in the two-thirds world. Understanding the global context challenges us to start at home, responding to local needs as well as global ones.
