**About Penn Global** We are the University's go-to for all things global. Penn Global provides strategic direction to the University of Pennsylvania on its global endeavors, with a focus on the efficient investment of university resources. Encompassing seven reporting offices, Penn Global leverages its broad and deep expertise to advise the University on its global activities and to collaborate with Penn’s schools, centers, communities and partners to deliver a comprehensive suite of global programming that generates positive impact around the world. **Our Strategic Framework** The *Strategic Framework for Penn’s Global Initiatives* aligns institutional priorities with constituent needs to pursue a coordinated, sustainable approach to global engagement, ensuring the University continues as a preeminent university in the U.S. and world in global engagement and academic diplomacy. The University's first global strategic framework was [adopted in 2012](https://almanac.upenn.edu/archive/volumes/v59/n14/pdf_n14/12412-Supplement-GlobalInitiatives.pdf) and subsequently updated in 2018 and 2023. **At the core of the five-year strategic framework are three pillars: 1) Ensure *every* Penn student has a meaningful global experience, 2) Produce research for global impact and 3) Advocate for global engagement, rebuilding and strengthening global networks.**
