A brief description of the sustainability-focused immersive program(s) offered by the institution:
We have a number of immersive programs that are offered that provide elements of sustainability. These courses heavily touch on culture, social justice, diversity and learning from indigenous communities. In addition, they focus on environmental and economic issues of the regions and in which the course are taught.

Our course in Ecuador is very unique and bridges the all elements of sustainability through different lens.
