CLIMATE AND CULTURE CHANGE IN THE ANDES Intersession Dec.
26th 2012 – Jan. 13th 2013
The Center for Social Well Being celebrates 12 years offering our 3 week
training program in interdisciplinary qualitative field methods, as well as
Spanish and Quechua language classes, in the Peruvian Andes. The combined
undergraduate and graduate level seminar is held at the center's rural base,
an adobe lodge on an ecological ranch in the Cordillera Blanca mountain
range of the Callejón de Huaylas, 7 hours northeast of Lima. Coursework
provides in-depth orientation to theory and practice in field investigation
that emphasizes methods in Participatory Action Research and Andean
Ethnography centered on themes of Climate Change with respect to Ecology,
Health, Education, Community Organization and related topics. Students have
the opportunity to actively engage in ongoing investigations in local
agricultural communities to develop effective field research techniques, and
to acquire language skills. In addition, the program provides excursions to
museums, archaeological sites, glacial lakes and hotsprings; optional
recreational activities include hiking, mountain biking, rafting, kayaking,
rock climbing and trekking. Total cost is $3,500 US dollars. This includes
all in-country travel, food and accommodations at the rural center, and
course materials. The program is under the direction of Applied Medical
Anthropologist, Patricia J. Hammer, Ph.D., and Ecologist, Flor de María
Barreto Tosi. Program dates: New Year’s Intersession December 26th 2012
through January 13th 2013
