Team Nicaragua is an annual international learning delegation of 20 Montclair State University students, under the direction of Jhon Velasco, Director of the Center for Non Violence and Peace Initiatives. This unique program offers students the opportunity to learn first hand about the social, political, and economic disparities in developing countries and the United States, using the complexities of the issues in Nicaragua as a model.

Meet Your 2011 Team Nicaragua Delegates: Bekki Davis
"My name is Bekki Davis and I am from Pawtucket, Rhode Island. I am graduate student studying Counseling and Higher Education at MSU. On campus I work with both the Department of Family and Child Studies for my assistanceship and with Equity and Diversity program as an intern. Working with students is my passion and I plan to use my experience with Team Nica as a model in my future career to create programs that educate and empower students to take action. When I take a break from changing the world, I love to dance around my kitchen while singing and baking. One of my favorite quotes is “Hope is knowing that people, like kites, are made to be lifted up."
