At International Doorways we seek to stimulate, educate and develop teenagers to partake in positive contributions enhancing global awareness. Each program immerses participants in the day-to-day cycle of the country they choose. Programs last from two to six weeks focusing on key elements such as language study, community service, short internships/independent travel study & outdoor adventure. Summer programs are facilitated by experienced group leaders & the host country selected. 

 

The fundamental blueprint of our unique summer programs are small groups between 6-25 participants, gender balanced for teenagers between the ages of 14-18. During our summer programs our home base will consist of various sites. These often include a home stay, camping & hostels/budget hotels.
