Johannesburg is the economic and cultural heart of South Africa and a gateway to southern Africa as a region. Ex-tending over hundreds of kilometers of peri-urban space, the city encompasses 15 million people and is a magnet for migration from around the continent and further afield. Yet even as it embodies many of Africa카지노 게임 컬렉션™s greatest development aspirations, Johannesburg also faces daunting challenges arising from persistent, racialized economic and public health disparities, climate change, and democratic deficits.

The Summer Semester Abroad is designed to allow Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s undergraduates the opportunity to live and study in Johannesburg with an integrated program of courses and experiential learning. The program includes taking formal courses at the 카지노게임사이트 of the Witwatersrand (Wits) 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ one of the world카지노 게임 컬렉션™s leading universities 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ alongside actively engagement with South African culture and society under the guidance of both a Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s 카지노게임사이트 and local South African instructor.
