ECOLOGY & CULTURE TOURISM PROGRAM! 
Greetings!  

At ISAC we take great pride in designing learning programs that give students invaluable cultural, academic and experiential value. We are delighted to offer this unique program based in the stunningly scenic Sindhudurg Coastal Region of Maharashtra, India. This region is a rich pot-pourri of cultural richness, 'virgin' beaches, serene backwaters and unqiue artistry.
 
Through our Ecological and Cultural Tourism Internship Program we are offering students a great way to discover India while learning and contributing to society in equal measure.
 
In this newsletter we give you a sampling of the 'real' India and invite all of you to partake in a journey that will last you a life-time!
