Cities in the 21st century

International study abroad program that provides an understanding of dominant urbanization processes, as well as initiatives that are promoting social and ecological justice.

Throughout the courses, we analyze how people live and organize in relation to issues such as gentrification, housing, work, migration, environment, security and transportation.

This training program is defined by the principles of experiential learning, radical pedagogy, mutual exchange, critical thinking and a commitment to a more egalitarian world.
