Being challenged by a worldwide situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic affecting all levels of activities, innovative solutions and interventions are needed to meet the new challenges. As a response to continuing our efforts for providing global experiences to our students, a US-Peru collaborative effort using virtual platforms was conducted in Summer 2020 to deliver a Sustainable Engineering and Leadership Practices program (SELP). This engineering program covered principles and practices related to sustainability topics and followed a problem-based approach to address societal needs for the development and preservation of livable communities. The course content focused on environmental, social, economic, and management challenges and the need for leadership skills to implement global sustainability principles into engineering solutions. Emphasis was placed on the importance to communicate short, medium, and long-term consequences of engineering solutions to decision-makers and society. Practical examples were developed during the course to illustrate the concepts learned in the sessions. With the participation of thirty students in a virtual environment, the students developed projects related to sustainability problems in their own communities.  The SELP program has been delivered in a face-to-face format in previous years and includes three main areas: technical, cultural, and social activities. This paper summarizes the lessons learned and what led to a successful well-rounded global experience in all the program dimensions.
