San Diego State University - University of Michigan Global Migration and Education Initiative (GMEI)
This collaborative project between San Diego State University (SDSU) and the University of Michigan (U-M) aims to provide innovative professional development opportunities for K-12 and Community College Educators in Michigan and California. The collaboration’s keystone project, the Global Migration and Inclusive Pedagogy workshop series, is an annual event that brings educators from Michigan and California to the US-Mexico border at the San Diego-Tijuana artery in order to better understand global migration flows and inclusive strategies for teaching in increasingly diverse classrooms.
This project is supported by a Title VI National Resource Center Grant from the US Department of Education. It is administered by the U-M Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, the SDSU Center for Latin American Studies, the SDSU College of Education, the SDSU Office of International Affairs, and the SDSU Center for Equity, Bilingualism, Biliteracy, and Binational Education Research (CEBER).
