Welcome to GEMQUEST, the educational study/travel arm of GEM. GEMQUEST'S past history included unique international homestay and cross cultural travel experiences in Australia, Canada, China, Costa Rica Hawaii, India, Japan and SouthEast Asia. Offered primarily for teachers, they were available for graduate credit through GEM at Chestnut Hill College. Central to GEMQUEST trips today are the programs related to understanding the United Nations and important global and cultural issues.
Housed at Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia, PA, GEMQUEST works with Culture Quest, a Philadelphia based educational tour company that develops customized travel programs for students and educators including educational tours, homestays, language immersion and volunteer service programs in Europe or the Americas. Visit Culture Quest's website to see the full extent of their programming.
Remember� GEMQUEST will customize study/travel experiences for schools and organizations to fit into their specific program needs. GEMQUEST organizes and leads many study travel experiences to the United Nations each year for hands-on classroom interaction with UN staff involved in the important work of the UN.
Here are three sample programs
