Kyrgyz-Afghan Cultural Exchange Program

On February 16th, the Kyrgyz-Afghan Cultural Exchange Program (KACEP) held its first meeting at AUCA. KACEP is aimed at bringing together AUCA Afghan students and Kyrgyz students at Bishkek State University, fostering cooperation between the two institutions via a platform of cultural exchange and interaction. This 10-week program will host the Persian Language Talking Club and events promoting the culture, history, art, and cuisine of Kyrgyzstan and Afghanistan.

This opportunity was made possible thanks to Michael Freese, Dean of Students, Bermet Talasbek kyzy of AUCA's Business School and @spiritamerica's Afghan Future Campaign, supporting the education of Afghans in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Lebanon, Iraq, and Qatar.
Through the Afghan Future Campaign, AUCA and Spirit of America are working together to support Afghan students studying in Bishkek and enrich their experiences.
