This summer, students immersed themselves in the culture of South Africa: visiting Robben Island, hearing firsthand from a winemaker who overcame poverty and now exports wine to the U.S., and speaking face-to-face with energy executives confronting Africa’s toughest infrastructure challenges and the transition to renewable energy.
