Abstract
This autoethnography is a reflective essay that discusses the impact on the author during the educational excursion to Colombia, through the framing of Social Emotional Learning (sel) in youth development. Through examining oneself in relation to the Colombian youth engagement landscape, the author was able to contextualize her studies in the cuny sps ma in Youth Studies program while learning about a new, fascinating culture. This allowed the author to compare and contrast her experiences, both personally and professionally in hopes of deepening her understanding of the global landscape of youth-work and the profound effect it has on youth participants, youth professionals and the community at large.
