Kara-Amena

About Me: 

I have worked with young people from around the world since 2005. Most of my students come from countries with a significant Muslim population and former Soviet Union countries. I have supervised, lived with and/or placed students from Afghanistan, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Turkey, Turkmenistan, India, Pakistan, Russia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, South Korea, Indonesia, Philippines, Serbia, Thailand, Ukraine, Armenia, Zimbabwe, Tunisia and Kosovo. I am passionate about helping our human family to understand each other better... to help eliminate myths and misconceptions about our brothers and sisters from different faiths, countries, tribes, races, etc.

My Passions: 
Cross-cultural exchanges, Afghanistan, reading, writing, photography, youth
My Challenges: 
I can't do enough to make a difference in the world.
My Vision for the Future: 
Tolerance and mutual-understanding across the globe.
My Areas of Expertise: 
Not an expert, but perhaps stronger than some: Youth, leadership, interfaith work.
