QERC - Quetzal Education Research Center

The Quetzal Education Research Center (QERC) offers an intentional living-learning community focused on sustainability studies and research. From their website: QERC “brings students and researchers from around the world, including the host country, to engage dialogue and research focused on the tropical cloud forest and its floral and faunal community for the purpose of sustainability. QERC works to integrate local people with research scientists, educators, and students from around the world in the effort to merge good conservation practice and economic viability in the local community.” Housed in San Gerardo De Dota, you'll live with your peers and professors and have access to a library, kitchen, and common areas. Full of adventure and learning, this semester will not disappoint!
