CIEE Summer Community Public Health in Santiago

I would recommend this program to my peers because I think it was really valuable to understand health experiences and systems outside of our own community. I thought it was great to deeply envelop ourselves in the dominican experience and combine academic and cultural activities. I also think study abroad in general is an amazing way to improve intercultural awareness and become a more well rounded person

I would be likely to recommened the study abroad program to a friend simply for the shear breadth of experiences and growth that it offers. Never have I ever felt so supported in my journey to learn about health and better my spanish. Everyone, from the instructors to the communities that I worked in to my peers, were amazing! I'm sad to leave the program behind but I will forever be grateful for the confidence and world views that it has left me with, and friendships that I've made in my time here

CIEE has so many options for whatever people are looking for. Different countriees, program lengths, areas of study, and monetary options. Genuinely something for everyone, and my program did a great job of exposing my group to the culture, filling time with amazing experiences, while still alotting free time to enjoy what we chose.
