SIT Study Abroad: Netherlands: International Perspectives on Sexuality and Gender
Explore the complexities and paradoxes of gender and sexuality in the Netherlands and Morocco.
WHY STUDY ABROAD IN THE NETHERLANDS?
Famous for its Red Light District, canals, and bicycles, Amsterdam is also an ideal city in which to explore the intersection of gender and sexuality with race, class, and religion. Meet with activists, academics, and professional sex workers and visit key places like the International Gay and Lesbian Archives and Information Center. In Utrecht and other Dutch cities, speak with sex educators, advocacy groups, and community organizers. Get a Muslim perspective on gender and sexuality during a two-week excursion to Morocco.

QUOTE
"I went into the program not knowing what to expect and I came out with experiences that will shape my life forever. In this program I was pushed to view my American sexual education in a different light when comparing it to the education in the Netherlands. We had amazing speakers in the classroom who were all so knowledgeable in their field. But really the best part of the trip for me was the people I went with. The group leaders were so good about making sure we safe and having fun. And the other students were some of the most open minded and inclusive people you could ever meet. That is the kind of environment that this program fosters. This program was full of learning both inside and outside of the classroom."
