Professional Exchange:
fostering relationship of trust leading to change
At the heart of SHARE’s work is a commitment to transformational relationships - building bridges of trust and understanding that lead to significant projects. Since 1991 SHARE personnel have been engaging professionals in the former USSR in a variety of fields, in a variety of ways. When people engage in face to face encounters, restrictive stereotypes begin to melt away as our common goals, commitments and dreams emerge, lighting new paths of possibility.
One way in which we and others are contributing to the building of foundations for cooperation is through professional exchange programs. SHARE personnel and volunteers have participated in:
An art exchange program with the Cherry Creek Art Festival
Sharing of training and standards in between law enforcement communities
Opening dialogues between leaders of different faiths
University professor exchanges, seminars and workshops
Facilitation of joint business ventures
High school basketball tournament
Hosting, funding and briefing sister city delegations between Arvada, Colorado
and Kyzylorda, Kazakhstan
Organizing student delegation exchanges
