Partnerships

The New School has partnered with CoSAP Ethiopia for years by participating in the international field program (IFP), where students spend the summer in Ethiopia working on projects involved in poverty and development, gendered development, and environment and climate change. Many assignments focus on developing tools for monitoring and evaluation, such as data collection, data analysis and reporting.
