In this week's episode, I chat with final year student, Trevor Lwere. We talk about his experience moving to South Bend, Indiana, USA. Trevor mentions the healthy habits he is trying to adopt, the challenges he faced while adapting to life in the US, as well as his role as the previous president of the African Students' Association at the University of Notre Dame.
Before beginning his tertiary education, Trevor studied at the African Leadership Academy in Roodepoort, South Africa. He then moved to the USA to study Economics, Global Affairs and Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame. He is currently in his final year. You can connect with him on LinkedIn.
Notes from the episode:
Pan-African Youth Conference (Virtual)
Theme: Which Way, Africa?
March 26-17 2022
The Pan-African Youth Conference (PAYC) is a conference co-organized by the African Students’ Association (ASA) at the University of Notre Dame and the Pan-African Students’ Union (PASU) at Northwestern University that seeks to foster a common understanding and diagnosis of Africa’s challenges amongst students from across the world who are interested in the development of Africa.
Participants in the Conference engage in critical debate and discussions that seek to answer four critical questions: Who we are as Africans? Where are we as a continent? How did we get here? How do we go from here?
