FIE Presents at NAFSA on Education for Social Responsibility
FIE staff member Katie Hignett presented at the NAFSA (Association of International Educators) Conference in Kansas City, MO on “Education for Social Responsibility: Programme Design, Implementation and Integration.”
Katie’s section of this roundtable session, “Student Life and Social Responsibility in the United Kingdom”, discussed a step-by-step approach to reviewing existing services and implementing creative ideas into student services programming to facilitate an increased awareness and commitment to sustainable living. Katie then facilitated a breakout exploring how such programming can contribute to continued awareness and action on sustainability that continues beyond the study abroad experience.
Katie co-presented with Miguel Karian, EdD of Earth Education International.
The complete presentation along with the session handout and breakout worksheets can be downloaded from the NAFSA website.
