Our very own Kimberly Stender joined colleagues from VCU Global Education Office and University of Rochester to share expertise and best practices in supporting the work of global engagement and citizen diplomacy at the annual NAPAHE conference in Washington, DC.
While I am proud of the many collaborative projects that we undertake in the VCU Global Education Office, I want to highlight a very special recent collaboration that underscores the power of interinstitutional networking for the benefit of internationalization. GEO’s Director of Operations, Jessica Abernathy, joined Michelle Bopp-Smith of the University of Rochester and Kimberly Stender of the University of Massachusetts Amherst to present on effective practices in supporting international delegation visits at the NAPAHE conference in Washington, DC. Thank you to Jane Gatewood, PhD and Kalpen Trivedi for supporting and encouraging this important work and knowledge sharing. Proud of Jessica’s work for Virginia Commonwealth University!
