Reflections on my WYA Africa Journey as Regional Director
It’s amazing when I look at how far I have come since I begun with WYA in 2015. I can’t explain how the value of the human person as explained by the intrinsic nature of human dignity continues to become more and more important in my life. WYA continues to instill in me the value […]
WYA Croatia Week and the WYA Family experience
I’ve always loved to travel, see new places, learn something new from each culture, delve into their customs. Therefore, I was beyond happy when WYA Europe told me they were going to send me to Zagreb for five days for the WYA Croatia week. I knew I was going to visit the city, as well […]

“When the facts change, I change my mind with them” Or should I? WYA UK in the House of Lords
At a time when politics has never been more convulse, the corridors of Parliament offer a unique view into the world of policy and debate.

WYA Austria meets Kunstglaube
It was an experience of different cast. KUNSTGLAUBE means “Artfaith” in English translation. But what did it really mean? At an event last night, we weren’t really sure on what it literally meant. Did it mean the art of faith of the faith in Art. I together with the members of the WYA Austria Chapter got […]
On importance of leisure: Leisure is not mere idleness, it’s a gift
[tabs] [tab title=”English”] “We work so we can have leisure”, wrote Greek philosopher Aristotle, in one of his most important works “Nicomachean Ethics”. On the other hand, the prevailing philosophy of the modern world, in which actions which don’t give us immediate results are considered more or less meaningless, is “We have leisure so we […]
