SASHA CHANOFF OF MAPENDO INTERNATIONAL
Sunday November 8, 2009
4:00 PM until 6:00 PM
Sponsored by the Gossels Fund for Human Dignity
This year, we are proud to have Sasha Chanoff, founder and executive director of Mapendo International, as our Gossels Fund speaker.
Sasha has worked for over a decade in refugee rescue, relief and resettlement operations in Africa and the US. Before launching Mapendo, he consulted with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in Kenya and worked with the International Organization for Migration throughout Africa, identifying refugees in danger, undertaking rescue missions and working on refugee protection issues. He has appeared on national and international TV, radio and print media outlets, has lectured, presented and given keynote speeches at universities and international conferences and has published extensively on refugee issues. Sasha is a 2006 Echoing Green Foundation Fellow and a 2007 Draper Richards Foundation Fellow. Both foundations have identified Mapendo as one of the most significant emerging social change organizations in the world.
Mapendo International works to fill the critical and unmet needs of people affected by war and conflict who have fallen through the net of humanitarian assistance.
