Healing the Children of War
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Joshua and I am the husband of the amazing Alexandra Jagelman. This project is about Alexandra and the amazing work she does with and for Children At Risk and Children of War .
Alexandra is a wife, mother, medical worker, and advocate for regional transformation along the Burma/China border.
Along with our family, she's had the incredible privilege of living and working in Southeast Asia for over 20 years. It is a beautiful part of the world. But, like everywhere, it has its difficults too.
For the past three years, Alexandra has been working alongside regional governments to see a hope and a future brought to children effected by Burma's civil war (the longest one in modern history).
Although Alexandra has a professional background in tropical medicine and primary health care, these skills are not enough to bring healing to the kinds of trauma that have tragically occured here.
In 2015, Alexandra began the process of skilling up to meet the specific needs of the precious children in our region. Through the support of family and friends, Alexandra has commenced graduate studies in Holistic Child Development, which includes: early interventions for traumatized children, emergency response to war and disasters, and inter-disciplinary strategies for nation building.
Alexandra has already completed specialized coursework at Harvard University and Fuller Seminary - and she is thriving. Her grades are excellent (she didnt approve this part, but i snuck it in anyway) and she has already seen her studies translate into positive results for her on-the-ground projects and initiatives.
In 2017, Alexandra would like to continune with her studies and really press into highly specialzied studies that focus on the Children of War.
Her curriculm for 2017 looks like this:
> Mission with Children at Risk (Fuller)
> Childhood in Global Perspective (Fuller)
> Children At Risk Final Elective (Fuller)
> Urban Humanitarian Emergencies Course (Harvard)
> Vector-borne and Zoonotic Infections (Harvard)
> International Conflict and Cooperation (Harvard)
> Resilience in Children Exposed to Trauma (Online)
> Health for All Through Primary Health Care (Online)
I would be so honored if you would partner with us in Alexandra's ongoing education as a part of our life-long commitment to seeing healing and transformation in this region.
Love Joshua & Alexandra
