The goal of the Virtual Cultural Exchange group was to promote global understanding through the comparison of students' photographs from different parts of the world.
The Virtual Cultural Exchange Project was originally started by Colegio Bandeirantes, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Our GAP group participated in this on-line exchange by sharing pictures from our daily life. When the founder of The Kasiisi Project, Elizabeth Ross, found out about this project, she suggested that we mount a photo exhibit comparing photos from Uganda with those from The Bronx, and we decided to do this, adding photos from Brookwood as well. |
