Intercultural experiences do not always require students to travel abroad. Every summer, migrant farm workers and their families in south Georgia receive much needed health care through the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing's Farm Worker Family Health Project. The program puts the nursing school's mission for social responsibility in the service of a vulnerable, medically underserved population, and benefits students by providing a training opportunity that helps increase their cultural awareness of individuals who work under extremely difficult conditions and whose efforts are crucial to Georgia's agriculture system. |
The Nursing School encourages students to examine nursing in another healthcare setting through an exchange program with the University of Alberta, Canada and a cultural exchange with the School of Nursing at Yonsei University, Korea. An Alternative Spring Break program takes a dozen students each spring to the Caribbean to explore the ties between faith and health in the British Virgin Islands, the Bahamas, and Jamaica.
Each summer, nursing students join other health volunteers to provide two weeks of intensive health services for migrant farm workers and their families in Moultrie, Georgia. The program integrates community service and student learning to address health disparities and the health needs of a vulnerable population.

Journeys of Reconciliation:
Each May, Journeys of Reconciliation take interdisciplinary delegations of students, faculty and staff to participate in service projects in communities around the world that have experienced a history of violence or exploitation. In Bosnia-Herzegovina, delegation members explored the massive economic, health, environmental and social problems that have arisen following the ethnic and religious war fought in the early 1990s. Participants met with government officials, community representatives and local leaders working to build peace and understanding among youth of different religious and ethnic backgrounds. |
Sponsored by Dean of the Chapel and Religious Life Susan Henry Crowe, Journeys of Reconciliation is an inter-religious project promoting relationships between Emory University and communities around the world that have a history of violence and exploitation. Delegations made up of students, faculty and staff participate in community service projects in these nations, and explore the cultures’ values, social patterns, myths, and stories. Destinations have included South Africa, Mexico, Bosnia, Northern Ireland, Cuba, Bolivia, and the Texas/Mexico border. |
