Bicyles Against Poverty (BAP) at CGI U

So, i decided to post the video Grace managed to make while we were attending the Clinton Global Initiative University conference (CGI U, http://www.clintonglobalinitiative.org/NETCOMMUNITY/Page.aspx?pid=1871) in Austin, Texas. Just to tell you a little about the conference. It was the second time president Bill Clinton was hosting CGI U after the first one was done at Tulane University. The conference basically brings together students from so many universities to listen to inspirational speakers and fellow students. Its amazing how small this world is, while at the conference i met a two of my second years that i went to school together with in Norway. While i was busying making friends, one of my old friends came behind me and when i turned i could not believe it was David Sengh behind me. I had not seen for over 3 years, so you can imagine the joy of reunion. The other friend i met was Wanlapa Fon.

Anyways, at CGI U i got to meet and connect with some amazing and passionate students and i hope i will be able to work with most of them to develop our group commitment of bringing bicycles to Northern Uganda where people surely need them.
You can check out the project in detail at www.rotu.org or www.bicyclesagainstpovertry.org.

So, just to go in detail about the video i posted. I was setting at one of the plenaries before Bill Clinton spoke with a Mathew Mcconaughey and there was a video of me talking about Bicycles Against Poverty (BAP)which was done when i was attending CGI in Newyork last september. It was a surreal moment and Grace managed to get part of the footage from the screens. By the way, it was just not me and Grace Han at the conference, another two of my great and helpful friends joined me to publicize BAP, it was Molly Burke (i have been working with her ever since i stepped at Bucknell-wonderful girl i must say) and Abhay Agarwal (very passionate guy). I will post a number of pictures taken at the conference.
And guess what..Bucknell University surprised us with a cameraman at the conference who went around taking pictures of what we were doing..a few of my friends were not happy with the decision, but well, what can we do...Bucknell is great
