The Experiment Digital Virtual Exchange Program: Climate Change

Designed to connect hundreds of young people across the United States with peers in the Latin America (LATAM) region, such as Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Columbia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guiana, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, and Venezuela.

The Experiment Digital Climate Change and the Environment prepares participants to be more civically engaged and lead change. This fully funded eight-week virtual experience teaches high school students to understand the climate crisis in communities around the world and complete a final project that proposes a solution for the climate crisis.

Students come away from the program with:

• Deepened understanding of the intersection of social issues and climate change impacts;

• Hands-on experience in environmental sustainability;

• Leadership and intercultural communications skills; and

• Friendships with peers from different countries and cultures.
