About Program
A wise philosopher once said: "To investigate a problem is to solve it". The same goes for the challenges facing us in the decades to come. It is only when we face up to them, investigate, understand and learn how to deal with them that we can take the right action. We do this at CICD. All our programmes are solidly founded in today's reality and looking towards the future. It is essential that we live and work collectively. The tasks we face are too big to solve alone.
If you are ready for a big challenge with 3 or 5 months of studying and preparation at CICD for the project, 6 months on a volunteering project in an African country or India and then return to CICD for 1 month to conclude the programme.
All food and accommodation is included at both CICD and whilst on the project.
