Each semester CAPA hosts Global Cities Conferences at our CAPA program locations. For Fall 2013 we are pleased to offer a conference in Buenos Aires, Argentina from October 20-24, 2013. More information will be posted shortly.
CAPA's Global Cities Conferences use the urban spaces of its location as “text,” and present participants with the opportunity to trace the political, cultural, and religious currents of the CAPA location whilst also learning about the CAPA’s Global Cities Program. The Global Cities Conference features exciting lectures by CAPA faculty and guest lecturers that explore the global city's complex and multi-layered environment.
Conference participants are also offered a unique opportunity to experience first-hand CAPA’s curricular strategy through classroom and housing visits and collegial conversations with our faculty and student-services staff. Attendees will also participate in a co-curricular activity with our students as part of CAPA’s innovative MyEducation offerings.
Reserve your spot today and find out why CAPA has been the trusted global leader in learning abroad since 1972. Bienvenidos!
