TWENTY JAAI DELEGATES TO WORLD CONGRESS

 In less than two weeks from today, twenty members of JAAI will be heading to Bujumbura, Burundi to participate in the 7th World Congress of Jesuit Alumni. We have three representatives from the West Zone - two from Ahmedabad and myself from Mumbai.

We look forward to a new experience of witnessing the work and world of alumni in a country that has till recently been torn by ethnic clashes.

Conrad
