What does ProWorld do about culture shock?
Participants may face culture shock when they start the program and when they return home after the program. To prepare for culture shock before the program, ProWorld provides a reading list to help participants learn everything they can about the country they are traveling to. We also recommend participants go with an open mind and understand that things will be different, but that is part of the experience. ProWorld will provide participants with a Re-entry package to help them readjust to life at home after the program. We also recommend they reach out to their group when they are back at home, they have been through similar experiences and can be a support to each other.
