In the future SPEA is, at present, working on two new possibilities. The first of these is in South Africa and at the moment it is possible for us to arrange internships there through the University of South Africa in Pretoria. Later, there may be the opportunity to take classes for credit. In addition we are working on an environmental policy, management and law program for the European Union at the Carlos III University in Madrid. Furthermore, if you have specific country interests we have not mentioned, then come and talk to us.
