"Anthropologists in the making": Building bridges of cross-cultural understanding

Article Abstract:

'Anthropologists in the making' is a summer program, in which children learn to embrace and celebrate aspects of culture unique and different from their own and also learn to identify common threads that connect human societies to one another. Some of the events organized under this program are discussed like decoding Egyptian hieroglyphs, and identifying symbols in Buddhist paintings.
