Science and Global Competencies in Argentina

This is a two-week program designed for curious people! It was also thought by scientists and experts in interculturality for students from Argentina, Uruguay and the rest of the world who wants to be part of an incredible experience. It is a great adventure in the middle of the surprising nature of Córdoba, where scientific exploration and learning through experience become a great laboratory of neurons operating at the speed of light … and beyond! The result? A team of global and curious citizens committed to the environment in which they live.

The Scientific Expedition Camps combine scientific exploration and adventure in nature in an intense experience of group sharing with other peers from all over the world. In the camps there are no formulas or classes, but new ways of thinking and discovering, guided by a team of scientists, teachers and intercultural trainers. The camp will give you a completely di­fferent insight into nature and will also enable you to make friends for the rest of your life. You may also find out things about yourself that you didn’t know existed.

You don’t need to be a devoted science lover or a future Nobel prize winner to take part of this camp. You just need to be curious and want to have fun!

About Cordoba

Córdoba province is the ideal destination to be in contact with nature because of its outstanding mountain ranges. Situated here are the famous mountain ranges “Sierras Chicas”, “Punilla”, “Traslasierra”, “Valle de Calamuchita” and “Sierras del Sur”.

Walking along natural paths, feeling the breeze of a favourable climate, the smell of mountain herbs, the singing of birds, the murmur of the rivers, walking around the historical center of the capital and getting to know the Jesuit legacy are some of the possibilities Córdoba o­ffers when one decides to get in touch with its landscapes and culture.
