In a nutshell
Join students from UCONN and from South America and experience one of the most remote, pristine and biologically rich regions of the world: the southern tip of South America. Staying at a research station that is within the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve, we will focus on biocultural conservation through a multicultural, interdisciplinary experience that will include elements of biology, philosophy, anthropology, conservation ethics, environmental history and more.
