Strait Talk is a non-partisan and student-run dialogue program that seeks to transform international conflict by connecting young people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the United States. Every year in April, the Berkeley chapter of Strait Talk selects a total number of 15 delegates from the US, mainland China (including HK and Macao), and Taiwan to attend a week-long symposium that includes: 40 hours of ICR (Interactive Conflict Resolution) sessions facilitated by a professional moderator, a series of public panels presenting prominent scholars in various fields ranging from economics and political science to sociology and journalism, and a culminating final consensus document that will circulate among relevant policymakers. Strait Talk Berkeley is currently recruiting young professionals as well as students to attend the Strait Talk Symposium in April 2013. If you are interested in becoming a delegate, the applications for Strait Talk Berkeley 2013 are now up on our website: http://straittalk.org/?page_id=14 You can also check out the facebook page at: http://www.facebook.com/StraitTalkBerkeley Finally, feel free to email any questions to: [email protected] "The Strait Talk Symposium was one of the highest quality and most productive efforts at promoting cross-Strait dialogue that I have ever attended... These may seem like small steps but they are essential and very deserving of continued support." -Thomas B. Gold , Associate Professor University of California, Berkeley "Strait Talk is a brilliant and creative idea, all the more remarkable because it is the creation of undergraduates. This project has the potential to build important bridges across a historically tense divide, and it comes at a very auspicious time." -Ambassador Richard Holbrooke --
