MCC East Coast Mexico/U.S. Borderlands Learning Tour

This learning tour is designed to bring awareness about the increasing migrant deaths, militarization, environment degradation, effects on habitat and effects on sister communities by the border wall along the Mexico/U.S. Borderlands. Participants will increase their understanding and knowledge of the social, economic, political and biblical/theological significance of migration in border communities, including advocacy tools and capacity building to engage others on borderlands and migration issues.

The cost of the Learning Tour is $550 for the six days, which includes all meals, modest lodging and transportation on sites. We will cross the border to Mexico, so you will need to bring your passport. The price does not include your air ticket to and from Tucson, AZ. Please make your flight arrangements to arrive in Tucson before 2:00 p.m. Flight departures should be scheduled for the morning of Monday, October 8.
