Ahh…the PST project is complete…

Today was our Cross-Sector Leadership Forum that we conducted with the Chernihiv Oblast Administration and the NGO leaders from the community.  It was wonderful to share so much information regarding NGO’s in the United States and learn about the practices of NGO’s in Ukraine.  The operations are vastly different and will be interesting to explore over the coming years.

Practicing one last time and waiting for the fun to begin.  My cluster with all four of our interpreters.  Pretty crazy!

All done and thrilled.  Except Sim.  But then he never smiles on camera and always looks gangsta.  And yup, he is from Albany, New York.
