Dr. Dennis McCunney is “Working Beyond Boundaries”

In April 2018, a team of faculty and student affairs educators presented a workshop titled “Working Beyond Boundaries: Cross-Disciplinary Approaches to Bridging Ethical Global Learning and Campus Context” at the 5th Global Service-Learning Summit at the University of Notre Dame. The team included Dennis McCunney and Nichelle Shuck, Center for Leadership and Civic Engagement, Archana Hegde, Human Development and Family Science, Kim Larson, College of Nursing, Derek Maher, Religious Studies, and Susan McCammon, Psychology.

This cross-disciplinary panel representing student affairs and academic affairs addressed some of the large-scale challenges of institutionalizing ethical global learning across campus. The presenters discussed ECU programs and partnerships representing several continents and social issue areas, including conflict transformation in Northern Ireland, public health and community health nursing in Guatemala, sacred spaces and community service in India and Nepal, and family health care services in the Dominican Republic.
