Study Abroad Safety Handbook
To address the current worldwide concern for safety, and the need for informed study abroad program participants, the Safety Abroad First-Education Travel Information (SAFETI) Clearinghouse of the University of Southern California's Center for Global Education in the Rossier School of Education makes Study Abroad Safety Handbook available for students studying abroad. The document is made possible through support from the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) of the U.S. Department of Education.
