global education by looking beyond the borders of North Carolina and
experiencing a culture, country, and people different from their own.
Educators will explore significant cultural and historical sites and
interact with Senegalese families. This Study Visit is intended to be a
unique and challenging professional development opportunity—not a
tourist trip!

- Hotel accommodations
- Some meals in Senegal
- Ground transfers & transportation in Senegal (per itinerary)
- Entrance fees to cultural and historical sites

Knowledge, strategies, and experiences from the seminar, the Study Visit, and the follow-up workshop will give participants the ability to add global content to their teaching and help their schools and colleges become more global in focus.
