NICA believes in the power of individuals to make a difference!
Through a reciprocal community based program in El Transito, NICA works with dedicated university students on targeted projects to increase the sustainability of the community.
NICA’s short-term internships differ from other programs by utilizing student skill sets over a two-week period. Focus on a student’s individual interests and expertise enables a fulfilling global experience in a developing community. The student will plan, develop, execute or participate in a project designed around NICA’s mission: to empower Nicaragua through community development, helping the country become more self-sufficient and a greater participant in the global economy.
Current projects include:
- Infrastructure
- Education
- Health Care
- Commerce
- Community Pride
Participants live in a communal setting designed to bring full awareness and understanding of El Transito. The total cost of the program is $1000. Room, board and three meals a day are included in the two week program.
Be a part of the experience. Make a difference!
