Emory MBA students at the university's Goizueta Business School who are enrolled on the Social Enterprise @ Goizueta program will travel to Santa Cruz in Bolivia in August in order to help solve the city's waste problem through recycling.

According to the school, the team of five evening, and two full-time Emory MBA students "will spend three weeks applying skills learned in the classroom to conduct a feasibility study."

Goizueta Business School's and the Kimberly-Clark Corporation

For the project, Goizueta Business School has partnered with the Kimberly-Clark Corporation, whose executives will hear presentations on the Emory MBA students findings and possible solutions.

The experiential learning trip is the third such trip in the four years that the Social Enterprise @ Goizueta project based learning opportunity has been running, according to Businessweek. Reinventing Ethiopia's wine industry, and researching the expansion of an eye surgery to better treat the people of Honduras have both been notable previous trips.
