- Dear Medard,
I am the Program Manager at Arcadia University's International Peace and Conflict Resolution Program. I was looking at the online workshop and followed the link to bigpicturesmallworld. It seems like there is an opporunity here to work together. I'm not sure if you are available to meet in person but since we are so close I would like to suggest it. I was also wondering if you take grad students for the workshop. Please feel free to contact me. Best, Sherry
