Service-Learning to Cultivate Sustainability: A US-Colombia University Exchange Program

“This project aims to advance global sustainability by bridging the gap between academic knowledge and practical skills through Service-Learning initiatives. Collaborating institutions, Fayetteville State University and Universidad EAFIT, with support from NGOs Low Carbon City and Sustainable Sandhills, engage students in short-term action-oriented solutions to community challenges. The interdisciplinary project involves faculty exchange, thematic preparation, and two Service-Learning initiatives in Colombia and the USA, addressing Sustainable Energy, Waste Management, and Urban Biodiversity.”
