PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Explore the people, history and culture of Bali through service learning and immersive, hands-on experiences. 

Students go beyond the classroom and into Balinese communities to see how the island keeps its traditions alive while facing tourism, development and environmental change. Along the way, they’ll snorkel over a Biorock coral restoration site, hear the island’s history from members of the Blahbatuh royal family in their ancestral palace, and visit Kopernik, an organization that brings simple, life-changing technologies to communities in need. 

Students return home with a balanced, firsthand understanding of life in Bali, along with new perspectives on culture, sustainability and their own role in a connected world.
