Articles Celebrating NAIDOC week 2014 Overall, I have found the opportunity to attend Harvard University and study the Summer School program to be so invaluable. I feel that I have achieved each of the goals that I set. I have been intellectually challenged by the discourse and the different perspectives of other students. I have met a number of very smart, accomplished international colleagues. I have established network contacts with professionals who are genuinely committed to global change and willing to provide assistance. I have made a number of personal friendships that will be long-lasting. |
