PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
Given the tenuous future of DACA, the CMSC has decided to create the Fall 2024 and Winter 2025 Independent Dreamers Study Abroad Programs (IDSAP) in order to offer a broader and a more flexible travel-study opportunity for Dreamers in Mexico and other countries of origin from October 15, 2024 to January 15, 2025 for the Fall Program and December 1, 2024 to February 28, 2025 for the Winter Program.
This unique model will allow for both, Mexican-origin Dreamers and DACA-mented Dreamers from other countries to discover their birthplace, cultural roots, reaffirm their identity, reconnect with their families, and explore higher education opportunities in Mexico.
This program will operate under the CMSC’s Mexico City-based collaboration with a network of partner institutions, which include: Mexico’s National Autonomous University (UNAM), Facultad de Estudios Superiores de Acatlán Campus and Centro Cultural Universitario Tlatelolco, the five-campus prestigious Mexico City Metropolitan Autonomous University (UAM), the public Mexico City Autonomous University (UACM), El Colegio de la Frontera Norte (COLEF), Centro Cultural Tijuana (CECUT) and the CILAC Freire Institute in Cuernavaca, Morelos.
The CMSC’s Fall 2024 and Winter 2025 Independent Dreamers Study Abroad Programs (IDSAP) have been designed specifically to offer travel-study options for individual Dreamers or in small groups, for colleges and universities to develop long-term and short-term projects for their Dreamers and to continue to require an ethnographic research paper based on their experience returning to their homeland and discovering Mexico.
The Fall 2024 and Winter 2025 Independent Dreamers Study Abroad Programs (IDSAP) are explicitly designed for colleges and universities, Labor Unions, Community-based Organizations, Churches and Religious Organizations, and Dreamers’ organizations, interested in contracting with the CMSC for travel-study abroad programs designed specifically for the sponsoring institution’s purpose and participants, including non-Latino and non-Spanish-speaking Dreamers...
