Inequality, Education, and Gender in South Africa

Join us in Cape Town, South Africa, to study the complex issues that lead to gender inequality in the local townships. Students will be involved in assisting in breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty. The majority of people living below the poverty line are women. Many girls are still denied basic education and women continue to dominate the world's illiterate population. While in South Africa you can apply your theoretical knowledge to help increase the opportunity for women in townships and rural communities to access quality education, health care and income initiatives.
