We are so proud to be able to host and provide an awesome African Social Experience to students from Global Leadership Academy.
OVERVIEW
On this program students will live in Geluksburg, which means “happy mountains” in rural KwaZulu Natal. This rural village town, like many others, has limited resources for primary healthcare and basic first aid. Become accustomed to the Zulu culture as you participate in a home visit and explore the places where traditional and western medicine intersect. Meet with the local chief, and eat a traditional meal. The rolling mist and tranquility of the surrounding Drakensberg mountain peaks will make for a one-of-a-kind experience on the southern tip of the African continent.
