#Internationaleducation is more important than ever in the post pandemic world, considering the many global challenges for which #openness in education will be key. Great #NAFSA2022 opening speech by @lanitraberger, President of @NAFSA’s Board of Directors.


The largest global conference of international educators -#NAFSA2022- is almost starting in Denver. More than 5K delegates from 100+ countries will meet at @NAFSA to reinforce post pandemic intl’ academic collaboration. More information at: nafsa.org/conferences/na…

We stand with our members in deploring the hate-fueled violence in Buffalo & Orange County and our hearts are heavy for the lives taken & traumatized. But words are not enough. We must prioritize practical ways to overcome hatred with thoughtful engagement and meaningful action.


I am deeply saddened by the passing of @Madeleine, and extend my sincere sympathies to her family. She was an inspiration & mentor to me and a great ally to the field of #intled. (1/2)



Celebrate Black History Month with inspiring and informative reads recommended on JBC’s Instagram by @lanitraberger, Bruce D. Haynes, and @Carolivia. And be sure to check out the authors’ own books, too! 👉bit.ly/3h72qLr

I’m so excited to share this week’s conversation with @lanitraberger, whose work touches on so many important issues: art, social activism, racial justice and public monuments.


The role of @NAFSA advocating for allowing international students in the U.S. to gain more practical experience, has greatly contributed to key gov. changes on the OPT rules. One of the many reasons why joining NAFSA matters. nafsa.org/about/about-na… @EstherAtNAFSA @lanitraberger
