Why take your psychology, sociology & social work course abroad

Culture shapes how people think, relate and seek help. A social sciences travel course gives students contact with communities, NGOs and practitioners, and a chance to test theory against lived experience.

ARAMFO arranges visits and discussions that fit your course, from social service agencies and NGOs to university departments and community organisations.

What students can experience

Visits to social service agencies, NGOs and community centers
Sessions with psychologists, social workers and researchers
