About Program
This three-week summer program invites participants into the heart of Mongolia’s nomadic heritage through shared living, learning, and celebration. The experience begins with a 10-day immersive summer camp in the countryside, where students explore sustainability and global citizenship through Mongolian nomadic wisdom (held in English), alongside a cohort of Mongolia’s next generation of changemakers. Through hands-on activities rooted in nomadic life, students experience sustainability as a daily practice, guided by AFS’s experiential learning approach and Active Global Citizenship framework: Effect+ Curriculum.
