Overview
Our guest speaker, Mark Overgaard, has spent multiple years focusing on the Suri people, their art, culture and language. In this webinar, he will be sharing the resulting insights and beautiful imagery. Mark is a retired tech executive and ambitious amateur photographer who has been fascinated by the Suri since his first visit in late 2019. In the webinar, he will give us fascinating glimpses of their unique culture, as well as the background, goals and challenges of a just-launched mother tongue education and literacy project that aims to further empower them.
