UMD is offering a three credit education abroad course in Costa Rica! Students participating in this course will travel to San Jose, Costa Rica after completing preliminary readings, online discussions, and a pre-departure orientation. In addition to cultural exploration, students participating in this course will gain an appreciation for the types of human trafficking occurring in Costa Rica and the consequences of and reactions to it. Readings, lectures, speaking engagements, and interactions with direct service providers and NGOs will be combined to obtain the objectives of this course. We expect this experience to be eye-opening, not only to see the committed work of the NGOs but also the devastating consequences of various forms of trafficking in Costa Rica.
