As such, it is The Forum's responsibility to monitor changes in our field of professional practice and maintain, update, and promulgate the Standards of Good Practice for Education Abroad according to the needs of our field.The Standards of Good Practice for Education Abroad can be used as a tool to:guide program development,evaluate program quality,advocate for resources and support,train new professionals,educate stakeholders such as parents, faculty, students, etc.,establish and maintain respectful, sustainable relationships between partners.While these Standards represent consensus in the field of education abroad at the postsecondary level, other constituents may find the Standards useful for informing their own practices. These groups may include primary and secondary educators providing education abroad programs to their own students and institutions and organizations offering education abroad programs for participants from countries other than the U.S.

Many Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are engaged in education abroad and have been for decades. Like other institutions, study abroad at HBCUs offers a variety of options for traveling to different areas of the world for students, while seeking to advance toward obtaining a degree. However, much of the literature regarding study abroad at HBCUs focuses on barriers that prevent students from participating at comparable levels as other institutions.How can we celebrate the work of education abroad practitioners at HBCUs?What can other institutions learn from the experience of HBCUs engaged in study abroad?This edited book will highlight the extraordinary and innovative contributions of HBCUs to education abroad as a whole, with special emphasis on historical perspectives of global education, opportunities for global engagement, stories from faculty, staff, and alumni and how study abroad fosters a sense of belonging in the world.
