Go Global! Removing barriers and providing wrap-around support for student-initiated opportunities

The project aims to provide opportunities outside the standard semester exchange programs. By using existing curricula and more than 50 international partners to leverage their knowledge base, the University of Lethbridge is creating new programming to encourage all students that student-initiated opportunities are possible and can be created specifically to meet their needs. Activities will encompass experiential, work-integrated and faculty-led initiatives to non-traditional countries, as well as developing new cohorts for Indigenous and students with disabilities. The activities will create equal access to global learning opportunities for all students, foster community engagement at the local and international level, and provide employability skills.
