One of the main reasons students choose to go abroad is to experience a new environment, new culture, new people and new backgrounds. In doing this, many students discover that not only are they learning about the world and different cultures, but they are also teaching the world about their respective culture, history and roots.
Here at TEAN, we strive to be a leader in supporting students from all backgrounds to be able to travel and learn abroad. Our aim is to empower our students and help prepare them for a life-changing experience. By making sure you ask all the right questions before departure, you can ensure you’re supported and taken care of while abroad.
Any type of discrimination from TEAN program participants during their time abroad will not be tolerated in any way. TEAN encourages you to come forward to any TEAN staff member you feel comfortable with regarding any acts of discrimination that you experience or witness. All instances of discrimination, regardless of severity, are relevant and you are encouraged to report them to any TEAN employee. We assure complete anonymity and privacy in these situations as it is our top priority to ensure the safety and comfort of our students.
