TedxAustinWomen:
ALI Director, Jaime Horn and 2013 ALI Fellows, Afnan Bahloul and Becca Weinstein, spoke to an audience in Austin Texas about meeting and getting to know people from different backgrounds. Afnan and Becca met in August 2013 as participants of the ALI pilot program. The three week intensive seminar which focused on bridging cultural divides, mentorship, and skill building in leadership and peacebuilding, provided Bahloul and Weinstein plenty of opportunity to reflect on their fears of meeting and learn a lot about each others cultures and personalities.
