This panel will explore what is involved with taking a group of media students abroad. Panelists will discuss what a trip like this can accomplish, what it takes to organize and execute this type of trip, how to create an outcome that is satisfying to a diverse group of individuals, the challenges that you’ll face when working in another country and culture and finding stories to tell. When participants leave, they’ll have a checklist to help guide them in getting their own media trip abroad started.
