CIEE is a leader in security and safety for students studying abroad and continues to be committed to the operation of safe, secure, study experiences. CIEE was a founding member of the Interassociational Advisory Committee on Safety and Responsiblity in Study Abroad (formerly the Interorganizational Task Force on Safety and Responsibility in Study Abroad). Additional information on the Task Force and study abroad safety issues in general can be found here.
CIEE has also partnered with other experts in producing resources that address health concerns for students who are thinking about studying abroad.
Of course, individual health concerns should always be addressed by a timely visit well in advance of your departure to a qualified travel medicine physician.
