People Like Me: A Student Panel about Navigating Identity Abroad
March 13, 2024
5:00 pm
Statler Hall, 165
Planning for study abroad? No matter how you identify or where you're studying, early planning is the key to a successful study abroad experience.
Join us for a facilitated discussion with fellow students about navigating your intersectional identities while studying abroad. A panel of returned study abroad students will share their experiences, knowledge, and advice for expressing your whole self in a different culture. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and think about your identity in a new context—outside the norms of Cornell, your hometown, or your home country.
This global freedom of expression event is an opportunity to explore critical issues related to free expression of your identity and how you encounter the world. As a student abroad, you have a deeply personal chance to experience cultural exchange, collaborate productively in a global context, and have challenging conversations while staying true to yourself—all vital skills for successful participation in democracy.
The Office of Global Learning is here to help as you think about your identity in a global context, learn about new norms and ways of life, and find the support you need.

New in 2024: Global Impact Fellows
Launching in spring 2024, this opportunity is open to grad students from all research disciplines with a demonstrated interest in interdisciplinary and/or international work. Selected fellows will form a focus group to develop a global studies curriculum for a future Einaudi Center graduate certificate.
Global Impact Fellows will meet regularly through the spring 2024 semester with faculty fellows Edward E. Baptist and Jennifer Newsom. You'll play a crucial role in designing syllabi and presenting a showcase of graduate research with global impact.
Inequalities, Identities, and Justice
The Einaudi Center supports public scholarship and thought leadership to address inequalities experienced across the globe, including cleavages in society like race, religion, gender and sexuality, class, caste, language, and ethnicity. We seek to identify opportunities for transformative change and increased justice in migration and citizenship regimes, climate and land policy, economic opportunities, food systems, health, politics, and policing.
