Raising Awareness


​Dr. Yacoobi, CEO of the Afghan Institute of Learning and  CHI Vice President, travels widely in the world and gives many presentations during the year. She gives speeches on education for women, lifesaving healthcare interventions, women's rights, peace, leadership and many other topics related to Afghanistan, human rights, women's rights and treatment of refugees. 
Peace is Loud helps us with arranging speaking engagements for Dr. Yacoobi. 

​CHI promotes educating people about the needs of Afghans, Tibetans and others in the developing nations of the world. We are committed to increasing understanding, awareness and sensitivity to cultural differences. CHI officers give presentations to small and large groups, and on TV and Radio programs.
