As of November 2015, the IIE-led Generation Study Abroad initiative now includes more than 600 partner organizations, including 350 U.S. colleges and universities, and 100 from outside of the United States. Study abroad organizations and education associations as well as 14 country partners around the world have also joined. In addition, 700 K-12 teachers from 50 states have pledged to take action to encourage their students to develop a global perspective and consider studying abroad when they are in college. The initiative encourages purposeful, innovative action to get more Americans to undertake a meaningful international experience through academic study abroad programs, as well as internships, service learning, and non-credit educational experiences.

Join now to access this growing network and take advantage of the resources available to our partners:
  • Institutions and organizations can find a downloadable letter of commitment on our website. In the menu to the left, you can select the group that best describes you. 
  • K-12 Teachers can take the Generation Study Abroad Pledge here and be eligible for $1,000 enrichment grants (Deadline: December 1, 2015).
