Develop your intercultural global competence at the Intercultural Learning Workshop at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, April 13, at the Batavia Public Library, 10 S. Batavia Ave.

AFS Northern Illinois invites teens and adults to a free three-hour Intercultural Learning Workshop. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of their own cultural values as well as explore diverse cultural perspectives through hands on-activities and discussions.

This workshop is presented by AFS volunteers and high school exchange students who believe that building a more just and peaceful world begins when people from different countries and cultures meet, learn together and better understand one another. It is open to the public. Email bDeignan@afsusa.org to register, or call (646) 381-3316 for more information.

AFS, founded during World Wars I and II by volunteer ambulance drivers, is a worldwide nonprofit organization that has been a leader in high school student exchange since 1947. For information, visit www.afsusa.org.
