MoM’ Mission includes 10 days in the Dominican Republic or Central America as well as two days of preparation and a post-mission follow up. You will share the encounter with a group of 5 - 10 others.
Part 1/3: MoM's Mission Preparation
In order to get the most out of your cross cultural visit, MoM provides two days of preparation and reflection. Our expert preparation utilises a variety of activities to give you the framework to engage cross-culturally in a respectful and appropriate way from day one.
Part 2/3: MoM's Mission Visit (10 Days)
Departing Toronto on specific given days, the visit will include 5 days on the tropical island and 5 days visiting a development volunteer in the field.*
The people of DR or location in Central America will provide an introduction to eco-tourism, permaculture and latino culture, history, art and food.
Following this introduction to latino life, you will visit a MoM Global Volunteer to see the role Canadians can play in reducing global poverty.
At the end of each day, guided activities will assist you to gain a deeper understanding of the new sights, smells, sounds, tastes, textures and experiences; and perhaps challenge some of your own cultural ideas.
Part 3/3: Post-Mission Program
Upon return to Canada you will receive further reflection activities and opportunities for action based upon your experience and new understanding of another place.
* The exact number of days spent in each place may vary depending on transport, weather or other considerations.
Please complete and return this registration form* before 31st May 2010 to reserve your place.
