The Visiting Faculty travels with students to each location for the full duration of the semester.

    IHP cities in the 21st century: people, planning, and politics
    Cities in the 21st Century is a comparative study abroad program that examines questions of social justice in different urban contexts across four different countries. It is an interdisciplinary semester which draws on urban political economy, anthropology, sociology, politics, development studies, and planning. Its mission is to provide undergraduate students from leading U.S. colleges and universities with an intensive experiential learning-based exposure to the challenges of urbanization in different parts of the world. Students learn how to "read the city" through formal courses led by traveling faculty, as well as through homestays with local families; guest lectures by in-country academics, local politicians and policy makers; site visits and meetings with NGOs, neighborhood organizations and community activists.
    IHP's learning model is grounded in critical inquiry and analysis but attempts to bring those skills to bear on particular places and themes. It also helps students learn how to interact with a variety of local actors representing different and competing visions of the city, and to situate claims-making within the context of unequal access to wealth, resources, infrastructure, and political representation.
