Meet Carolyn on 1 September

                                                 Carolyn Fanelli, United States, District 7710
Carolyn grew up outside of Boston, Massachusetts. She completed her undergraduate degree in Public Policy Studies with a minor in Chinese at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. With the first of two consecutive Hart Fellowships, Carolyn spent a year in Washington, DC as an advocate for refugees and asylum-seekers. The second fellowship brought her to a global education museum in Raleigh, North Carolina, where she developed innovative ways to increase young people's awareness of global issues. Carolyn currently works for a cultural exchange program, promoting the many ways in which international teachers enhance students' educational experience. After earning her master's degree from the University of Brisbane's Rotary Center, she plans to work with young people in immigrant and refugee communities.

"With this program, Rotarians are supporting a new effort to move toward mediation, conflict resolution, and peace where there is war; understanding where there is disharmony; and providing food security where there is hunger, health care where there is disease; education where there is illiteracy; conservation where there is environmental degradation; and sustainable social and economical development where there is poverty:" - words of Luis Giay, Chairman, The Rotary Foundation, on 18 April, 2002 when announcing Rotary World Peace Scholars.
