Name: Rita-May Rahme
Age: 20
Hometown: Bsharreh, Lebanon
Area of Study: International affairs and diplomacy
Why you chose this internship: Living in Lebanon, we have experienced and continue to endure the consequences of war. There is a need for urgency, particularly with respect to the youth of our country, who having little hope for the future, almost universally intend to leave Lebanon; every lost young talent hurts our chances of ever achieving a lasting peace and a prosperous society. We need to provide them with a reason to stay and a reason to commit themselves to this rebuilding. I found my reason and that reason is wya :o)
