Dr. Warren conducts virtual exchange (VE)/collaborative international online learning (COIL) programs with universities in Mexico, Morocco, and El Salvador in which students engage in projects such as designing a health-related intervention and participate in activities including a culinary medicine class in which students cook a meal together created with disease-fighting ingredients.

In 2022, Dr. Warren was awarded an innovation grant to develop a student exchange with an institution in El Salvador through the 100K Strong in the Americas which funded 10 Morgan students to travel abroad and 10 Salvadoran students to visit Morgan in the Spring 2022 semester.
