| CIS Alumnus Participates in Iraqi Development Project |
| In May and June of 2009, Nathan Olah (International Development Studies, '07) worked in Baghdad, Iraq for Management Systems International (MSI), a private development company based in Washington DC. As a Project Manager for MSI, Nathan provided short-term technical assistance to the USAID-funded Iraq Tatweer ("development" in Arabic) National Capacity Development Project. Since its inception in 2006, this project has trained thousands of Government of Iraq employees from 10 central ministries and several key executive offices. During his seven weeks in Iraq, he lived and worked on a compound located in the so-called "red zone". While there, he assisted in the preparation of several reports to the US government, trained field accounting staff, facilitated the design of websites and logos for the Iraqi Government, and advised the project staff on GIS-related activities. |
