Welcome to UVA Global Affairs second Annual Impact Report! UVA Global was proud this year to stage a dramatic revival of our global engagement across the board as soon as it became safe to do so. From restarting flagship study abroad programs, to offering non-traditional global engagement and substantially expanding the scope of globally themed programming on Grounds, UVA Global made great strides this year. None of which would be possible without the enormous generosity of our community of donors.
