Colleagues,
Please share this great opportunity to your students, colleagues, and area. The invitation link for all series programs will be on our website at gel.arizona.edu. Some of you have included this in your programming or classes and have requested a list of attendance of participants. If you would like this data, we would be happy to provide this information. We look forward to having you virtually traveling with us.
Global Experiential Learning (GEL) Virtual Series
Global Experiential Learning (GEL) integrates travel, multicultural education, and service learning to empower students with knowledge, skills, and values to use as they continue their careers at the University of Arizona (UA) and beyond. GEL strives to create more intentional, inclusive, and culturally competent global programs to provide a positive experience that is open to all students.
We looked forward to an amazing lineup of experiences for this upcoming year, but the pandemic has placed a pause on the physical travel for now. As we individually adjust to these changes in the world, GEL has also evolved to provide you more innovative programming that will allow you to virtually travel with us and learn about unique stories from both here in Tucson and around the globe.  We have partnered with University of Arizona’s Center for Digital Humanities to provide you with multiple interactive and engaging virtual experiences every month that align with the mission of providing global opportunities that focus on social justice, environmental justice, cultural exploration, and service learning. Are you all ready to join us?
Series Topic Areas:
GEL Cats in the Community Series
GEL will showcase a service learning experience that explores the diversity of Tucson. Students will learn about the purpose, people, history, and culture of a Tucson based project and how they are creating sustainable change in our communities and how you can be a part of it.
GEL Culture Series
Students will be able to tour and learn about a cultural or historical sites within Tucson. Participants will be able to virtually traverse the locations and ask questions and learn in real time. Find out what makes Tucson so unique and the stories behind these special places.
GEL Global Connections Series
Virtually travel with us around the world as we highlight contemporary topics with international students, faculty, staff, and partners. Each session will give students a glimpse of multiple global perspectives as select presenters give an in depth look at social justice issues within their culture.

[Integrety, Compassion, Exploration, Adaptation, Inclusion, Determination]
The University of Arizona sits on the original homelands of indigenous peoples who have stewarded this land since time immemorial. Aligning with the university’s core value of a diverse and inclusive community, it is an institutional responsibility to recognize and acknowledge the people, culture and history that make up the Wildcat community. At the institutional level, it is important to be proactive in broadening awareness throughout campus to ensure our students feel represented and valued.
