On a Remote Fijian Island, a Global and Local Community Lives. Come join the Furman tribe on Vorovoro for in May 2011! Tribe Wanted is a sustainable development experiment that meshes sustainable living with community building and cultural adventure on a made-to-order castaway isle: 200 acres, surrounded by reefs, fronted by golden sand beaches, and shrouded in jungle. It sits a short boat ride from world-class surf breaks and the Great Sea Reef, which covers 77,000 square miles and is reputedly the third largest reef system in the world.
Be a part of this experience of a lifetime. Join 18 fellow Furman students and two EES faculty (Dr. Amelie Davis and Dr. Weston Dripps) as we venture to this remote South Pacific island for two weeks to experience "off the grid" eco-living while conducting basic scientific research in ecological, social and economic sustainability on the island. For more information contact Dr. Davis or Dr. Dripps.
