Through experiential learning and immersive international travel in conflict-affected regions, CIEL inspires critical thinking and creative engagement to counter division and polarization
Informative, impactful, inclusive. Like all CIEL study trips, we were presented with a comprehensive exposure to all stakeholders in immigration issues on both sides of the US-Mexican border. Expertly led and very memorable. Unreservedly recommended.
This was an amazing trip! We learned so much about what is really going on at the California border in terms of immigration. We heard from people of a range of political perspectives as well as directly from migrants. I am very grateful to have this well informed view of what is happening so close to home so that I can make decisions of my own of how I might want to interact with this community.
I know some people I spoke too beforehand were concerned about safety in the border region and among migrants. This trip was so well organized and I always felt safe.
