Please join us for a dynamic discussion about education in Haiti in the earthquake’s aftermath. Mr. Skyler Badenoch, a 2006 graduate of the International Development Studies program, will share his insight on living in Haiti during the earthquake, and the steps taken since then to build and rebuild the country’s education system. Through his work with buildOn, Mr. Badenoch will also discuss the problems confronting education in the US, and how youth here can be empowered to build schools and bring literacy to children and adults in developing countries around the world. For more information, visit http://www.buildOn.org.
During the presentation, Mr. Badenoch will present his photography from his book, Haiti: Ti Moun Se Riches. All proceeds from the book go directly to improve the quality of education and health in the rural community of Nan Sab, Haiti. Please visit http://www.haitiphotobook.com.
