Therefore, the vision, mission, goals, and activities of the International ERG are focused on 1) creating a safe space for its members; 2) building a culture that fosters awareness, respect, and inclusion in the workplace; and 3) advancing the growth, career development, leadership, social connections, and success of international employees at Georgia Southern University.
