Rotary International
Rotary’s educational programs promote international understanding by bringing together people from different countries and cultures.

Volunteering in Romania
WORLD VOLUNTEER CAFE
"World Cafe" is a powerful method for creating meaningful and cooperative dialogue around questions participants perceive to truly matter. It is based on the idea that „If you can exchange opinions, you can change the future!"
What we aim with this event is to acquire, in a direct and interactive manner, other perspectives on volunteering from the foreign students in Cluj-Napoca. The main objective of the action is the exchange of information and opinions so that at the end of the discussion session we can have a global view on volunteering.
In this respect we propose a discussion session in a café in the central part of Cluj-Napoca with the theme "Volunteering in your country!" where the audience has the opportunity to find out information on the status of the concept and practice of volunteering in the countries presented at the event. The foreign students are invited to present the countries where they come from as well as the associative environment there. Each country present at the event will have its own space allocated so that the representatives of that particular country can interact with the participants and engage in discussion on the theme of the café.
The event is organized within the National Campaign for Promoting Volunteering "It's time to be different! Noble deeds are not for money!" The campaign is a communication effort on divers channels to different groups of audience that includes a series of events organized in different locations around Romania .

The new Hansen blog
Hello from sunny San Diego,
As the program coordinator of the Hansen Summer Institute on Leadership and International Cooperation one of my jobs is to maintain a space on our website where Hansen Fellows can exhange thoughts and ideas. With this in mind, I want to try a new format for keeping in touch. I want a forum where past, present and future Hansenians can see what other like-minded folks are up to.
Ideally I would like this blog to be a place for us to exchange ideas and information about what's going on: personally and professionally as well as a place to post random thoughts on current events, photos, videos, etc. Pretty much anything that may catch the eye of our globe-trotting Hansenians.
Feel free to send me any info you think others may be interested in...
