SWA
Academic Advisor, Dr. M. Reza Fakhari, was an invited
Faculty presenter for the “Community Colleges
as Sites of Global Citizenship,” a week-long
conference held by the Salzburg Seminar in Salzburg,
Austria. Dr. Fakhari presented the SWA as a creative
attempt at promoting globalism among world’s
students and creating a forum for the American students
“to listen to the world”-- a global citizenship
imperative at this critical time.
The
Salzburg Seminar (www.salzburgseminar.org)
is a leading forum for promoting global dialogue on
issues of pressing international concern. Founded
in 1947, the Seminar is dedicated to promoting the
free exchange of ideas, viewpoints, and understanding
in a neutral, cross-cultural environment. Situated
in Schloss Leopoldskron, an 18th century rococo palace
in Salzburg, the Seminar regularly brings together
future leaders from government, business, academia,
and the independent sector for week-long sessions
of intense discussion and debate.
