A Word about South Africa

South Africa is the perfect setting for this kind of experience. This country has learnt through years of hardship that intercultural understanding is fundamental to lasting peace and progress. Now the time has come for South Africa to share this vision and insight with the youth of today who will be the leaders and decision makers of tomorrow. In facilitating true intercultural exchange, it is necessary to study cultures and traditions that are relatively unknown to the western world, thus widening our youth’s insight and perspectives. South Africa offers native African cultures and traditions as well as those of European and Asian communities who have made South Africa their home.
