I'm so glad you're enjoying your time in Sydney Elaheh! I've been living in Fairfield during my LiA, and you're absolutely right—the multiculturalism of Australia in all of its liveliness is just spectacular. And I also agree, the food in Auburn is quite excellent. :)
Thank you so much, Mark! I am glad you have also been able to enjoy your time in Australia. :)
This is awesome Elaheh and it's amazing to hear how much hands-on experience you're really getting this summer! How does it feel moving away from research and doing more community oriented work?
Thank you so much, Audrea! For me, as the work I do at SpeakOut goes hand-in-hand with the research I did last summer, it honestly feels like a good transition. Given my research, I was able to garner a better understanding of Afghan migration and working with SpeakOut on various projects for Afghan Australians and other immigrant groups has been incredible, as I get to be in service for a group that I have learned about previously.
I really liked reading your post, Phoebe. Thinking back to last summer during our Laidlaw Leadership Retreat, there are so many types of leadership, and "leading from behind" is just as important as others. I also found Xiao Qian's story to be very inspiring, as she chose what she loved to do in service of others. Hope you have a good rest of your LiA!
This sounds amazing, Audrea! I really appreciate your reflection on how AI impacts photography. I remember from our shared cohort last year, you would always provide us with amazing updates from photographing various parts of NYC's Fuzhounese community, and now, this LiA seems perfect post that summer. Hoping you have a good rest of your LiA!
Kevin, your work in Honduras with Dr. Lester sounds fascinating. I hope your work with the archives go well!
Elaheh, it's so great to see photos of your event and your work with the SpeakOut team. Thank you for sharing!
Of course, and thank you, Dean Lang!
Elaheh this is so cool! It's so lovely to see that you got to play music and that your event went well -- good luck for the rest of your time at SpeakOut :)
Thank you so much, Wiann. Hoping your LiA is going well!
The work you do at SOS sounds so lovely, Lily! I love how many projects you guys do with the children at SOS. I am sure it is really nice to interact with them and help them all.
