Millennials Abroad in Uncertain Times: Innovative and Integrated Approaches to International Crisis Response
When you learn a natural disaster, terrorist attack, or other major event has occurred in a location where you have students abroad, do you know how to quickly locate them, communicate with them, and provide help? By embracing today’s technology and social media platforms, educators can develop nimble, robust crisis-management plans that keep pace with tech-savvy, connected students. Join us to learn about an integrative strategy that capitalizes on relatively new technologies to respond quickly and effectively in the event of study abroad emergencies.
