In this talk, KU’s 2024 International Affairs Advisory Board International Teaching Award recipient Melinda Lewis shares how her social work career prepares her to lead the longstanding international alliance between the KU School of Social Welfare and the University of Costa Rica’s Social Work department, as well as alignments between her domestic and international teaching, the critical importance of a global perspective in social work practice, and how innovations and continued investments in comprehensive internationalization can make a difference for students, faculty, and community partners—around the world.
