Background

Each year Students for Peace and Justice plans a spring break trip to a Latin American country. This trip is preceded by a three-credit-hour, student-created class and is followed by a weeklong series of presentations called Globalization Gone Wild.

For our sixth delegation, we will be traveling to Guatemala to study environmental sustainability, workers’ rights, and fair trade issues. The trip will take place from March seventh to fifteenth. We invite Miami University students, faculty, and staff to interact with us through the blog as we prepare for the trip, travel, and reflect on our experience.

Our thanks go out to the Roger and Joyce Howe Center for Writing Excellence for sponsoring this blog.
