May 2024 course in Quito, Ecuador

As part of Pathways to Children’s relationship with the U of M Center for Global Health and Social Responsibility (CGHSR), we are excited to share this opportunity.

 
This spring, CGHSR will host an experiential course about global health in Quito, Ecuador (globalhealthcenter.umn.edu/ecuador). In addition to graduate students, the Pathways to Children community is also invited to get involved in CGHSR courses as community learners.

If Pathways members are interested in joining the course, there are opportunities for an abbreviated experience or to participate in the full 2-week course alongside students. Please contact Anna Pendleton at UMN (apendlet@umn.edu) if you are interested in participating to discuss specific details and considerations.
