Why join a delegation?

The PML delegation experience is unique because:
1. You will build personal relationships.
You will focus on cultural exchange and creating connections between people,
rather than on short-term projects. You will gain a wider understanding of our
common humanity despite our different cultures.
2. You will learn about life in Nicaragua through immersion and homestay.
You will not be an average American tourist! Many returning delegates consider
homestays the highlight of the trip. Home stays can be hard work, challenging and
sometimes unsettling, yet are invaluable in deepening the learning experience. You
will bring home not only memories, but perhaps better Spanish and a taste for
Nicaraguan food!
3. You will experience the benefits of PML's 25-year partnership between
Leoneses and Minnesotans.
You will see the social, political, and economic realities of life in León. This glimpse
may propel you to continue working on one of PML's ongoing projects or to work
with Leoneses in the creation of a new partnership.
