From Beni, it takes about a nine-hour walk uphill to get to the village. The high school is situated in a wishbone shaped valley with a total population of about 3,500 scattered in six villages including Nangi. Nangi village itself has a population of about 750. It is in the middle of five other villages within a walking distance of two and one half hours. The number of participants in the program is limited to four at a time because of the shortage of living facilities in the school.
Opportunities are available year around.
We suggest, however, that you do not plan your trip during the monsoon period from Mid-June until the end of August. Applications are available through the Office of International Education. Participants need to pay for their own air tickets. Participants who want to earn credit must register with the University of Nebraska at Kearney. The course is a variable credit course from 1-6 hours.
