Event Details:
While we already recognize the many positive impacts of education abroad on students, there are long lasting global impacts which students can make through the successful integration of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals into education abroad.
In this workshop we will provide an overview of how MSU can successfully integrate some aspects of the UNSDGs into individual and group education abroad programming.
Presenters will define key terms, discuss the UNSDGs most relevant to education abroad, and share the program design and planning process of the "Packaging in Africa" education abroad program that focuses on UNSDG #12.
Presenters include:
- Laura Young, Office of Sustainability
- Aaron Tucker, Camille Chism and Amy Radford-Popp, School of Packaging
- Jean-Paul Sewavi and Jonus Cottrell, Office for Education Abroad
Lunch will be provided to those who register by March 13th
