Jeff

I have been able to secure a place to hold community meetings at St. Andrews on Saturdays with Iraqi boys. Jeff, a legal worker at St. Andrews has been kind enough to notify the Iraqi's he works with of this opportunity.

My hope is to tutor English, play games, arts & crafts, talk about the future, etc. with these kids and generally get to know the Iraqi mindset a little better. I think these interactions will facilitate the participatory research necessary to understand the risks that Iraqi boys face.

The 3 sessions will be broken up by age group and education level in English. The first will be for boys age 7/8 to age 10, the second for ages 11-14, and the third ages 15-17. Each group will meet for 2 hours every Saturday.

I also plan on visiting 6th of October City private schools in order to speak with the principles. My hope is to visit the students, talk about thier problems and future goals and administer a questionnaire.


I've stopped trying to contact CRS as they do not seem to be actively engaged in visiting the refugee schools this semester.
