GO! Ecuador is a cross-cultural immersion experience where students partner with Rosto de Cristo, meaning "Face of Christ," to learn about and participate in the Ecuadorian experience of Duran, Ecuador. The project focuses on "being rather than doing." Rostro de Cristo's year-long volunteers guide the week, allowing students to learn about the history and culture of Ecuador through direct interaction with the affiliates of Rosto de Cristo, including community members, after-school programs, health centers, school teachers, and other Ecuadorian volunteers. |
Estimated Cost: |
$1,200
"GO! Ecuador made me realize that just being with people, taking interest in their lives, in their story has such an immense impact. It's not so much the places that we visited that will remain with me over time as it is the people." -Jillian Abballe FCRH '12
