Abroad Together: Advancing UN SDGs through international experience.

International learning provides a valuable opportunity for students to learn about the UN Sustainable Development Goals, contextualize them as shared global challenges and appreciate the creative approaches communities in different countries are taking to address these challenges. Students return with new ideas that can be implemented locally or with increased commitment to engage in these important topics.

The core objective of this project is expanding participation in these experiences to students who’s financial situation would not allow them to participate. Working with campus stakeholders and global partners, low-income students will be supported to take advantage of the many available opportunities.
