Wynberg Girl representing South Africa in Face/Faith to Faith Programme

A'lia Mohedeen represents South Africa at Faith to Faith Programme

The programme begins with a 2 week intensive summer programme at a residential camp facility in New York and aims to “enhance the participants’ knowledge and understanding of their own faith and traditions; understand other religions, cultures and people; inform participants about the call of religious teachings to engage in public and world issues; and increase participants’ ability to collaborate across lines of religion, culture, class and ethnicity to make a better world”

A’lia applied by writing a maximum of 5 pages about why she would be a good candidate for the programme and what leadership abilities she has. She recently attended a meeting/workshop to discuss the programme and is looking forward to her trip to New York and what she will learn and achieve during this amazing opportunity.
