Description
Summary:Service learning and short-term missions represent one of the many habits disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The disruption imposed a break from routine that may also offer opportunities to push back on habits that hinder the flourishing of our students and our host communities.

It concludes by offering both conceptual and practical suggestions for a new approach.
