Hey everyone,

Apologies for cross-posting—I'm sharing below a message for students
(undergraduate and master’s students from all campuses and programs) about
a summer A-term study abroad program in Brazil, led by Helen Pineo (Urban
Design & Planning, UW Seattle). She’s included the details and a flyer
below. What an engaging opportunity for students interested in urbanization
and narratives! Not to mention the program is in Belo Horizonte, Brazil --
the first planned modern city.

Yours,
Monika

*New Study Abroad Program in Brazil*
Through experiential and community-engaged learning, students will explore
sustainable and equitable urban change in one of Brazil’s most innovative
cities. Belo Horizonte is globally known for its participatory governance
and urban policy successes.
One week of the program will overlap with the Change Stories Fellowship.
Students will collaborate on projects with professionals and activists from
the USA and internationally who are actively shaping urban change. This
study abroad is a unique combination of networking and learning with
real-world impact in a global context.
