LearnServe Trips

LearnServe Teams

This summer three groups of teachers and students will travel to developing nations to better understand the issues they face. While in-country, the teams will blog their progress with photos and reports from the field. Tune in to discover along with them!

Zambia and Paraguay are wrapping up their trips now, and China will depart on Saturday, July 14th.

LearnServe China and Registration

Hugh Riddleberger, CIE's director, and Kate Meenan-Waugh, WIS teacher and leader of the LearnServe China (LSC) trip, returned from a very successful planning trip to China. 2007 marks the debut of LSC.

The registration period for the LearnServe program has begun. If you previously indicated your interest, you should have received instructions for how to complete the process. If you have not received these instructions or if you are interested in participating (few if any spaces remain), please email learnserve@cie-wis.org.

New: LearnServe China 2007!

Building on the success of the LearnServe program, CIE will send a group to China in July of 2007 for 14 to 18 days, thanks in part to a generous grant from PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP.

The focus of LSC 2007 will be on the rapid development of China and its environmental implications. If you are interested in sending a school team or learning more about our plans, please contact us!

In addition to China, CIE will again send groups to Paraguay and Ethiopia in the summer of 2007. For more information, we recommend reading about last year's trips.
