Due to Liability Insurance limitations, minors will not be permitted to participate in UNW-sponsored international trips. Also, to help ensure the safety of our staff and students, a Background Check will be required of all non-UNW trip participants prior to securing any travel arrangements. (Be sure to seek their permission in advance.)
