Georgetown has seven Community-Based Learning (CBL) programs administered through the Office of International Programs in collaboration with the Department of Sociology & Anthropology and Center for Social Justice. All CBL programs are considered immersion programs. CBL options are available on semester programs in Quito, Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Santiago, and Santo Domingo. A summer CBL program (8 weeks) is run in Santiago. Georgetown College also hosts a summer service-learning program in Rome.
 
Term of service: Semester, Academic Year and 6-8 week short-term summer programs.
 
Description of program and of relationship with community: Community-based learning is a holistic approach to understanding the theory and practice behind social change and social justice processes. It partners students with nonprofit organizations to address the needs of poor or disadvantaged residents of the community. This work not only contributes to the public good, but it also provides students with a sense of empowerment and agency, enabling them to understand how the practical application of their academic skills can contribute to positive social change. There are substantive reading and writing assignments on an academic theme related to Social Justice as part of a three-credit practicum.
