The Williams in Africa Initiative (WiA), managed by the Williams in Africa Committee aims to creatively and carefully build experiential learning programs that encourage students to engage meaningfully with the African continent.  At this time, the initiative features three major programs:  a semester study away program,  a summer fieldwork program and a recently launched post-graduate research fellowship.  The WiA Committee has taken a collaborative approach in all its programming, tapping the expertise of external partner institutions as well as internal college departments and other programs.
