Between 2003 and 2005 she studied for a BA in International Affairs and Development Studies at the Elliott School of International Affairs at The George Washington University. During her undergraduate studies, Althea spent a semester studying International Development at Centro Internacional para el Medio Ambiente y Salud (CIMAS) in Quito, Ecuador. While living in Quito, Althea worked in the Resettlement Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). Althea also spent a semester at the University of Cape Town (UCT) in South Africa , which gave her the opportunity to participate as an election observer for South Africa's 2004 presidential elections.

Hello All!

I’ve had to take a break from blogging as I moved from Buenos Aires to Washington, DC to Boston, but I will be back with more about the DDV CAmpaign in Argentina upon my return from visiting my family and as I start myschool year.. In the meantime, I thought fellow AP-IANSA fellows would be interested in the following photo contest related to disarmament. Details below.

Best, Althea
