"Meeting so many people from so many different parts of the world.” The key goal, he emphasizes, is intercultural understanding. Everyone learns “through the personal background each of us brings.” It was only at UWC Armenia that Jonas truly realized “how valuable it is that we’re all different. I never saw it that clearly before.”
Alice, a lifelong educator with an illustrious career in district schools across several California counties, is a member of the UWCD Board and, together with her husband, participates actively in the school activities and supports a scholarship for an Armenian student.
The Armenian Educational Foundation announced that it will honour UWCD founders Ruben Vardanyan and Veronika Zonabend with the prestigious Educational Visionaries Award at its 75th Anniversary Gala to be held on 7 September in California.
