The Office of Global Strategy and Initiatives shapes Emory's international engagement through strategic partnerships, programs, collaborations, resources, and services. We bring the world to Emory, and we share Emory with the world.
For 2O36 Giving Week, we are highlighting the following funds:
Global Student Travel Support helps to expand equitable access to global education for all students. Gifts to this fund can support the Emory Free Passport Initiative which covers the costs of U.S. passports and global travel expense fees for a limited number of Emory students receiving financial aid.
International Student & Scholar Programming (ISSP) provides comprehensive programming, support, advocacy, education, and immigration services for international students and scholars, enabling Emory’s international community to flourish.
