Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>About eight students from Southern Utah University in the United States have launched an exploratory service project for Neighborhood Care Points in Eswatini.<\/b><\/p>\n

This was during their three-week study abroad trip that included Eswatini and South Africa.<\/p>\n

The project seeks to help young children in NPCs learn spatial skills through building with plastic building blocks.<\/p>\n

The students met with Charge d\u2019 Affairs Earl Miller to discuss amongst other things their passion for eco-tourism, travel photography and launching their exploratory service project.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis trip blew me away. It is going way beyond my expectations. To meet in person and be on the ground with eco-tourism staff, Foreign Service workers, NGOs and the wonderful emaSwati people whilst making connections is as valuable as I consider working in the Foreign Service or the Peace Corp,\u201d said SUU Interdisciplinary student Nathan Anderson.<\/p>\n

This is the fifth study abroad trip brought to Eswatini by Jon Smith.<\/p>\n

From 2011 to 2012, Smith was a Full Bright Scholar at the University of Eswatini and taught journalism, media studies and broadcasting.<\/p>\n

Smith said that they hoped to return to Eswatini every year with another group.<\/p>\n
