Student nurses from Missouri joined the Kaya team in Ecuador as part of a medical brigade. The community put together this wonderful video from the experience, and they look forward to welcoming back this group next year. They also hope to inspire many more participants to come and help them in their work. Contact the Kaya team if you want to join them!

The Forum on Education Abroad is doing a survey about how people's education abroad experiences affected their careers.

As Kaya alumni, why not add your voice to that survey?

And while you're reminiscing, why not share with us here how your time abroad changed your life!

Studied, interned or researched abroad? We want to hear about it!

We have been thrilled to host Carroll College pre-medicine and public health-focused students in our Livingstone, Zambia base! 🇿🇲

For the past two weeks, these students have taken part in local initiatives by observing and supporting local clinics, home based care, and public health education outreach. They have also learned some key phrases in the local language, Nyanja and seen some incredible wildlife and epic landscapes through a Victoria Falls hike and a Chobe National Park weekend! We hope to see you again soon, Carroll College!

Say "Hello" to the newest resident of Antelope Park in Zimbabwe! Chishamiso the rhino was recently born in this beautiful protected area.

Every new addition to Antelope Park is a testament to the work of all environmental conservation volunteers working in Zimbabwe. As the threat of poaching rises for animals across Africa, it is more important than ever to help preserve these stunning creatures.

Many of our environmental conservation volunteers in Zimbabwe spread awareness about the importance of wildlife protection and monitor animal behavior to make sure all members of the local ecosystem are happy and healthy.

Are you interested in meeting Chishamiso, her mother, or working with other animals in Zimbabwe? Contact Kaya today to learn more about how you can help protect African wildlife!

Our group of students from Notre Dame is on the ground in PERU! This group is learning about sustainability and indigenous rights while doing service-learning projects and spending time with Quechua-speaking communities.

Quechua-speaking communities are indigenous people who have preserved Andean culture through their language and customs. These communities are typically in rural, mountainous settings in Peru and the surrounding Andean countries.

Stay tuned for more updates from our group on the ground in Peru!! Want to learn more about our programs in Peru? Check out our site 🙌https://hubs.la/Q02BVWZY0
