DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION ABROAD We celebrate the fact that the world is comprised of people with many different identities, cultures, belief systems, and levels of ability – all are needed in order to make this world a more understanding and accepting place. Across the U.S., CISabroad is working closely with study abroad offices and college faculty to encourage all students to participate in education abroad programs.

ABOUT CISABROAD

Our continued support of students includes, but is not limited to:

CISabroad is an international study and intern abroad organization. Since 2000, we have been working with college and university students who want to experience living and learning in another culture. Every day at CISabroad, we strive to live up to our founding philosophy: to provide innovative education programs that foster academic, cultural, and personal development, and lay the foundation for our participants to become engaged global citizens.

• Racially and Ethnically Marginalized Students • High Financial Need Students • First-Generation College Students • Students with Disabilities and Mental Illness • Students from Minority Religious Groups • LGBTQIA+ Students

LGBTQIA+ FRIENDLY GLOBAL DESTINATIONS We sent an in-depth survey to our program partners, and combined with positive feedback from students, the following have made the list. We acknowledge that not everyone will have the same experience in every location, but research and expectations are key.
