What's Involved?

Travel with a PML delegation is intended to be an educational, experiential, mind-stretching, and heart-expanding experience – an opportunity to know people whose lives could change your life.

  • Spend time eating, playing, and relaxing with your Nicaraguan host family, sharing conversation, and daily life.
  • Visit various PML projects such as midwife training, a nutritional program for infants and new mothers, and a preschool training workshop.
  • Participate in local forums to learn about historical and current economic, political, and social issues in Nicaragua.
  • Accompany your family to vibrant cultural events such as a disco dance and a youth theater performance.
  • Connect with leaders in two communities, one urban, one rural, in which PML is involved and where the energy for change is inspiring.
  • Enjoy the sunset on an unspoiled Pacific coast beach or a hike amid the tropical beauty of active volcano country.
  • Visit a rural health clinic and HEODRA, León’s public hospital.
  • Stop at a community experiencing the effects of deforestation. Learn their reality and local solutions.
  • Engage in conversations with a gathering of Nicaraguan youth leaders.
  • Contemplate your way through a meditative labyrinth as you reflect on your Nicaraguan experience.
