Details of the Program
Cultural Exchange Program is a highlight activity of UNi. It aims to enlighten people with new perspectives to social services. Social services are meaningless when we know very little about the needs of society. Therefore, before dedicating your time as a social servant, UNi provides first-hand experience of local culture by engaging you in interacting with youths and villagers.
