The goal of the nine-week summer program in Moshi, Tanzania is to enhance cross-cultural
competence and gain broad knowledge about global health and
agricultural issues in the Tanzanian context. Participants live with a local family and enroll in a course at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical College (KCMC) in which they learn
about current policy issues and work in teams with
Tanzanian students to develop, negotiate, and present ideas on a policy
case study. During this service-learning experience, students also
contribute about twenty hours of direct service each week to a local
non-governmental organization, hospital, government agency, or research
project through an internship placement that is tailored to the student's interests in global health. To learn more, download the program handbook.
