Christian Study Abroad Conference
What is the Christian Study Abroad Conference?
The Christian Study Abroad Conference (CSAC) is where like-minded Christ followers in Study Abroad and Christian Higher Education can learn and network together.
There are phenomenal organizations that serve as leading experts in traditional study abroad, and though Christian colleges, universities, and study abroad providers are well served by these organizations, there is something missing.
CSAC is a space for Christians to build community, collaborate, explore the nuances and unique challenges of Christian Study Abroad programming, and discern how scripture can form our thinking around global engagement.
-
“[CSAC is] stepping in to create a space where we can not just share information, but also have fun and to laugh and tell stories, commiserate with one another, and ultimately to continue to foster relationships that are so important in our world.”
David Martínez, PhD
Dir. of Study Abroad
George Fox University -
“Come to this space even just to be encouraged, to be reminded you're not alone. To be reminded that this work matters and can be done better. And there's always more to learn and you don't have to do that by yourself.”
Ashley DeMichael
Dir. of Global Programs & Initiatives
Asbury University -
“For me, coming here [to CSAC], we've been able to know each other so that we can work well together so that the student gets the best experience that they can.”
