Third Goal: Bring the World Home

The third goal of Peace Corps is, "To promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans." With this online magazine, we hope to give Peace Corps staff and volunteers more opportunities to share their talents, successes and experiences in Colombia with a wider audience, both back home and abroad.
