Kate, a student from the University of Oregon in America, shares her experience studying abroad in Tanzania. She chose this program because it was in Tanzania, a country in Africa that not many Americans travel to, and the topic of human rights and social justice was exciting. Kate found learning about Africa's colonization and its ongoing impact to be "really eye opening and very sad" but also valuable knowledge she can now share. She also highlights how much she enjoyed the culture and community, noting that people are more friendly and community-oriented than in the US.

Shaye Beardsley, a University of Oregon student in the human rights and social justice program studying to be a lawyer, shares her transformative experience in Tanzania, where she gained a more diverse, non-Western perspective on the world. She is currently at the MSTCDC campus near River Lagonga and Arusha. Beardsley emphasizes the importance of gaining different perspectives, especially regarding development, noting that development is sometimes not done correctly and can be used as a tool for suppression.
