University of Dayton honor student Marie Harla is addressing nutritional security through the Global Flyers program.

Harla, of Freeburg, IL, will travel to Sikkim, India, for four weeks to gain first-hand exposure to agricultural systems and food culture through an immersive homestay in eastern Himalaya. Harla will examine how educational, social and economic systems affect nutritional security and sustainability with local experts.

Building on the experiential learning in India, Harla and other students will design and implement a group project in Dayton, Ohio, addressing nutritional security and sustainability.
