South Africa with Crabgrass
Three week tour in South Africa with Balkans youth leaders from every region of former Yugoslavia at a time when there were ethnic hostilities throughout the regions. Attended U.N. Conference on Racism and then toured South Africa visiting truth and reconciliation projects while youth leaders from the Balkans region discussed their ethnic conflicts. Goal of project was to develop a network of youth leaders throughout the Balkans region who could provide the basis for ongoing inter-ethnic peacemaking.
