Tim is an Ed.M. student concentrating in International Education Policy, with a particular interest in utilizing theatre and the arts as educational tools for disadvantaged populations, including refugees and others facing post-conflict hardships. He will be applying his skills in theater at A.M. Qattan Foundation in Ramallah. He will specifically work with the Foundation's Public Program, which focuses on creating events and activities specifically meant to draw in the wider public into its educational framework. He will develop artistic-related programming using Forum Theatre, other kinds of non-fiction drama, and public humanist methods meant to foster critical thinking, realization of personal and communal agency, and civic engagement.
Sarah recently graduated with a Master’s in Theological Studies, focusing on religion, politics, and ethics. An alum of the J-term course of 2019 where she spent a summer internship in Jerusalem working with AIDA, Sarah will be spending this summer working remotely with Telos, an organization working to form communities of American peacemakers with a focus on the Holy Land by equipping them with intellectual and pedagogical tools to help reconcile. Sarah’s unique skillset and experience will provide much needed support in (a) refining and updating existing peacemaking curricula; (b) assisting the ongoing development of new programming aimed at supporting activism among faith-based communities; (c) reconceptualizing and updating our resource lists; and (d) providing strategic communications support.
