I would like to invite you to a new and exciting communications program sponsored by the U.S. Embassy's Bicommunal Support Program (BSP) called Open Talk. Open Talk is designed to promote intercultural communication through an understanding of the world we live in, its people, diverse languages and cultures from and early age. It is a series of fun and inter-active presentations which enables the participant to understand the fine nuances of communication and appreciate the benefits of friendships, especially those with people from different backgrounds from their own.
The first presentation will be held on Saturday November 14th at the Fulbright Center ( next to Ledra Palace Hotel) from 4p.m. - 6pm. This program is open to all Bold Leaders and their friends. Pizza and drinks will be provided. I know that you have very busy schedules so I have tried to find a time and day that hopefully works for everyone. Please RSVP to me as soon as possible.
Regards
Karen

I have added this to events and sent invites. This is a real opportunity for Cyprus teens in the BL program to not only meet and give some hugs/love but a way to introduce many of the BL's friends to what is possible for teens of the island no matter the inevitable outcomes on the island. Whichever way it goes, the youth of both sides of the island will be required to communicate.
And don't forget. . .you Bold Leaders know how to create a safe space, so don't forget to introduce that.
