Description

We are delighted to announce that we have been able to reschedule a special guest speaker, Penelope Chester, A05, who will talk to us and answer questions about her experiences founding an international non-governmental organization (“NGO”) and working in a post-conflict environment. Penelope is a co-founder of The Niapele Project, an NGO whose mission, according to its website, is “to promote sustainable strategies for the empowerment of vulnerable refugee children, through the development of community-based initiatives.” Penelope previously worked for the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative. We hope that you can join us.
