Climate and Culture Change in the Andes June 2014
The Center for Social Well Being celebrates 13 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, AgroBiodiversity, 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. The program tuition
fee is $4000 US dollars that 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 Flor de María Barreto Tosi, Ecologist and Field Coordinator.
