The Peace Corps Master’s Program provided a similar experience to CEDC’sprogram but it was recently phased out, and it focused on graduate students rather thanundergraduates (Peace Corps, 2016). Consequently, there are not many outlets for students toexperience such an intense experience in the Global South.
