IDEA Correspondents

Our Tu Mundo Initiative was designed to help more students from established and emerging Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs) study abroad, Tu Mundo is an integral part of our mission to educate global leaders.

We partner with HSIs to offer them and their students a range of hands-on and dedicated student programming—from personalized study abroad scholarship-writing sessions to airfare giveaways. Looking to bring Tu Mundo to your campus? Learn more about the details and email us at diversity@iesabroad.org! We'd love to chat.

“I’m freer to be myself; I know who I am in a different language and a different culture because I created that person and held her close and, in the process, became proud of her. I don’t think I would’ve had that without leaving the comfort of my spaces here at home.”
Ashley S. • Brandeis University • Granada – Study in Granada
