Public Health & Travel Advisories

Plan with flexibility and adaptability in mind.

With the prevalence of respiratory viruses and fluctuating international travel advisories now a part of everyday life, we encourage all Working Groups to be mindful of our colleagues and anticipate that plans may need to adapt at times.

Remote format collaboration has its benefits.

Remote format activities allow broad engagement, facilitate international guests' participation, and are environmentally responsible. Groups are encouraged to consider a mix of formats (hybrid, remote, or in person) to sustain collaborations in an inclusive way for all participants.

Stay apprised of public health guidelines and travel advisories.

Public health guidelines and travel advisories may change at any time. The ability to use Corridor funds for travel, lodging, food, etc. for group gatherings or other in-person activities can change. International guests may not be able to travel to the U.S. Be mindful of these external circumstances so that all intended participants may engage.
