Description: Learn about this great opportunity to study abroad during Autumn 2013 on the program International Studies India: Environment & Development in the India Himalayas. The program is a twelve week opportunity for UW students to stay and live in the Kumaun Himalaya in the Indian state of Uttarakhand. The academic focus of the program examines the political economy of development in India and considers the dynamics of formal and informal labor, environmental change, and integrated rural development. The Kumaun Himalayan region provides a unique perspective to examine accelerated economic and environmental change in relation to the regional, national and international contexts driving this change. Students draw on this academic framework to immerse themselves in an internship with our host organization, the Central Himalayan Rural Action Group (CHIRAG).
