Responsible Study Abroad: Good Practices for Health & Safety

Because the health and safety of study abroad participants are primary concerns, these statements of good practice have been developed to provide guidance to institutions,  participants (including faculty and staff), and parents/guardians/families. These statements are intended to be aspirational in nature. They address issues that merit attention and thoughtful consideration by everyone involved with study abroad. They are intentionally general; they are not intended to account for all the many variations in study abroad programs and actual health, safety, and security cases that will inevitably occur.
