Program Description
This program is scheduled for SUMMER 2025 with dates of 5/11/25 - 5/31/25.
Purdue students will be part of bi-national teams with students from Cluj Napoca, Romania and live and conduct action research in rural villages. They will visit medieval towns of Seget and Sighisoara, the home of Vlad Tepes. We are being asked to apply asset based community development (ABCD) principles, participatory action research (PAR), and public engagement methods to evaluate and document community opportunities to promote their cultural sustainability in this historic region. This service learning experience will contribute directly to plans of study for students of agriculture, anthropology, communication, education and sociology.
