Journeys of Reconciliation is an interfaith travel and learning immersion program that explores issues of social justice and builds relationships between Emory University and communities in the U.S. and around the world.
The program invites groups to encounter the world's challenges, to hear stories of change and liberation, and to seek wisdom from outside the university's walls. The goal of each trip is that participants will be transformed into more thoughtful and caring citizens of the world.
Journeys expenses often include flights, honorariums for local partners, transportation, meals, lodging, and activities.
Many students who apply to go on Journeys request financial assistance, and so funds go toward scholarships that make Journeys accessible to all who are interested.
In 2022, we co-sponsored a learning journey to visit the Muscogee Nation (the Native peoples of Georgia) in Oklahoma, and in 2023 we offered an interfaith journey to the Equal Justice Initiative in Montgomery, Alabama. We welcome your support of Journeys so that we can continue to offer such transformative experiences and student scholarships to participate in the future.
