Description
"Global Exchange invites you to visit Iran as a citizen diplomat to do what our governments cannot do, create people-to-people ties. During this time of heightened US tension against Iran, and a backdrop of zero diplomacy for over 27 years, it has become even more important for Americans to educate themselves and others, and provide a counter balance to the Bush administration's demonization of the country and people. Learn the complex facets of Iranian history, culture and the context of US-Iran relations. Hear from multiple perspectives about Iranian daily life, society, and the current crisis with the US. See that despite censorship and social repression, Iranians continue to advance and struggle towards change."
