Another aspect of our educational program is the Development School. We consider this to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that will challenge and encourage people to engage in a transformative learning process. This experience will create a lasting impact the way visitors perceive and interact with the world.

Experiencing the hustle and bustle of Brikama market and deconstructing your observations on golden beaches will be augmented with visits a range of cultural sites including the Kunta Kinteh Island slavery houses. Other activities include volunteering on community projects and going on a short placement visit relevant to your chosen studies or interests.

The main purpose of the trip is to learn about globalization and cultural competence within an experiential learning approach in order to develop the skills, knowledge and resources to live in an increasingly diverse and globalised world. You will have the opportunity to locate theory within practice as well as learn with both your head and heart.
