Let your international exchange travel memories tell a story!

The National Clearinghouse on Disability and Exchange (NCDE) at Mobility International USA invites international exchange alumni with disabilities to submit creative content for an upcoming AWAY Travel Journal, a zine-like collection of media highlighting the experiences of people with disabilities during their study abroad, intern abroad, volunteer abroad, and other international exchange travels, through the lens of disabled travelers. Priority will be given to content that relates to people with disabilities participating in international exchange going from the United States to other countries.

Use the below form to submit an abstract for a submission. (For assistance, email clearinghouse@miusa.org.)

If your idea is selected, NCDE will contact you to request your completed content.
