Meaningful and transformative semester in Latin America

I absolutely glow even just thinking about SIT Bolivia, because the months I spent in this program were so powerful, important, path-changing, and transformative for me. My group of 16 meshed very well because we all wanted to be there and really wanted to be doing the difficult work of re-shaping our brains, our western assumptions and thought patterns, and how we might actually work to make positive change. I fell in love with Cochabamba and my host family, I felt safe, taken-care-of, and loved by our amazing academic director and program staff, and my Spanish improved a Lot! If you are looking for a semester that digs in deep to histories of colonialism, repression resistance and resilience, community and nation, development, environment, art and politics as ways of making change, and on and on and on--this is the program for you.
