Iceland (May 2012) Sustainability through community is the theme of this month long abroad to Iceland. On this program, students will live in one of the world’s unique eco-villages while also learning about the potential of alternate energy, energy efficient buildings, organic cultivation, production of arts and crafts from natural resources, recycling, and how a small group of committed people can make a big difference. This program will explore breathtaking sites and help students understand how this island nation is leading the world toward a path of sustainability.
