Cultural Encounters

Travel with fellow Wassmuth Center supporters to experience another country / culture through a human rights lens.

Limited to just 25 participants, each Cultural Encounter provides an opportunity to not only financially support the work of the Center in bringing human rights education to classrooms and communities throughout the state, but also to meet others in our network who are committed to “promoting respect for human dignity and diversity through education.” A Cultural Encounter is more than just a “trip,” it’s a life-changing journey.
