Welcome. 

I'd only been in Comoros for a few days, and in fact was enjoying my first Iftar during Ramadan, when our country director Dan pulled me aside. 

My name is Tourki Mohamed Ali and I was born in Ouzio, in the north of the island of Grande Comore. 

Cross-cultural communication is at the center of Peace Corps Volunteers' work in communities across the globe.

Beekeeping projects are ideal for international development programs because they're gender-inclusive, require no land ownership and have a low investment cost and encouraging short-term rewards. 

Between my experiences in Sierra Leone and Comoros, I’ve spent nearly two amazing years in Africa. I’ve still got another 9 months of service, but here are some things Peace Corps has taught me so far.

As the tourism and marketing advisor for the Comoros National Office of Tourism, I find it surprisingly difficult to write about tourism… particularly in Comoros, where there is currently none.

Building an environmental program, raising conservation awareness and establishing an EFL program are just a few of the projects facing Peace Corps when it re-enters Comoros in early 2015, 20 years after it left the small island nation.
