Here's some information that was sent to us
about World Wise Schools encouraging RPCV's to
speak in classrooms to help kids get a better
understanding of cross-cultural communication.
The site lists information on how
to find a classroom and activities to assist in
speaking.


The site can be found at

In light of recent events and the rising incidence
of hate crimes, the Peace Corps World Wise Schools
program has created a special section of their Web
site providing ideas and resources to help
RPCVs speak in classrooms about cross-cultural
communication.

You can visit the site at

http://www.peacecorps.gov/speak

Here's what you can do to help:

1. Find a school or community center to speak at.
