I left with a profound appreciation
February 29, 2024by: Irlanda LourençoProgram: Human Rights & Migration in Sicily
The Cultural Heritage and Identity course offered a deep dive into Sicily's rich history. The field trips were enlightening, and learning Italian added a valuable dimension to the experience. I left with a profound appreciation for Sicily's diverse cultural influences.
It beautifully combined a lot of experiences
February 26, 2024by: Shovkat Todorova BobevaProgram: Human Rights & Migration in Sicily
The Cultural Heritage and Identity in Sicily program was a revelation. It beautifully combined lectures, field trips, and personal interactions to paint a vivid picture of Sicilian culture. Enhancing the program with more hands-on workshops in local crafts would make it even more engaging.
