2. SOUZA_190211_196.JPG: What is Sister Cities International? Founded in 1956, Sister Cities International is a nonprofit citizen diplomacy network that creates and strengthens partnerships between U.S. and international communities. We strive to build global cooperation at the municipal level, promote cultural understanding and stimulate economic development.
3. SOUZA_190211_211.JPG: What is citizen diplomacy? Citizen Diplomacy is the concept that the individual has the right, even the responsibility, to help shape U.S. foreign relations "one handshake at a time." Citizen diplomats can be students, teachers, athletes, artists, business people, humanitarians, adventurers or tourists. They are motivated by a responsibility to engage with the rest of the world in a meaningful, mutually beneficial dialogue.
4. SOUZA_190211_215.JPG: What is a sister city? A sister city organization is a volunteer group of ordinary citizens who, with the support of their elected officials, form long-term relationships with people and organizations in a city abroad. Each sister city organization is independent and pursues the activities and thematic areas that are important to them and their community including municipal, business, trade, educational and cultural exchanges with their sister city. Sister city organizations promote peace through people-to-people relationships -- with program offerings varying greatly from basic cultural exchange programs to shared research and development projects between cities with relationships.
5. SOUZA_190211_230.JPG: Who can be part of a sister city program? Anyone! City officials, students and professors, local businesses, NGOs, religious groups, artist and musicians, local institutions and everyday citizens. The most successful and stable programs have volunteers from across these sectors.

2019 photos: Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Trips this year: a four-day jaunt to Massachusetts (Boston, Stockbridge, and Springfield) to experience rain in another state, Asheville, NC to visit Dad and his wife Dixie, three trips to New York City (including the United Nations, Flushing, and the New York Comic-Con), and my 14th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con (including sites in Utah). That's it so far!
