The 3rd training took place in a Jingpo village. I have a special connection with the Jingpo people, also known as Kachins in Burma. My Grandparents worked in Kachin State in Northern Burma for many years and came to love those people very much.
I still have family working in Burma stemming from their experiences and connections with these people, and my interest in Burma and eventual decision to come to work in this field and this region can be connected to my families history in the region and to my visits to Kachin State and Burma with my father when I was 19 and later as a University student doing research and working as a volunteer during my undergrad and post grad studies.
