The Niamey International Development Program offers a semester or academic year in the capital city of Niamey, Niger. The program combines the study of development, language, and society in the Sahel region of West Africa with individual community service placements that examine Niger’s culture and ongoing development efforts. In addition to courses and fieldwork, the program also offers participants a number of planned study trips and cultural activities. In the past, these excursions have included visits to Peace Corps volunteers' villages, an overnight stay in a game park, a day trip to a weekly live-stock market, and an outing to see the last free-roaming herd of giraffes in West Africa.
