- A cross cultural human rights workshop
- Visits/meetings with policy makers, organizations, and to relevant sites
- Volunteer service with grassroots NGOs on a variety of human rights issues including but not limited to: conflict resolution, education, health care, food/shelter, access to justice, human rights of children/youth, women, low-income populations, LGBTQ populations, indigenous populations, genocide survivors.
The deadline for applications is February 15, 2014.
Ages 18 – 30 (for Bosnia Programs) and 18 – 35 (for Rwanda Program).
Anyone can apply! From the US, Canada, and all over the world.
