Our next video conference

From posts so far it seems like there is interest in these topics:

How the West/Christian and the Arab/Islamic world view and treat one another.

Gender roles would be an interesting topic because there is in some ways a distinct difference between our two countries, as was touched upon in our first conference conversation.

The state of education in developed countries, which to me is interesting first of all because I am currently in the process of pursuing a college degree, and secondly, because (as Asma pointed out) many students in developed countries do not take advantage of their education.

Religion is most definitely a pertinent topic, if only because it has shaped so much of our cultures.

Our perspectives on human rights based on our cultural and political backgrounds.

I suggest that for our next conversation we focus upon either how the western world treats the Arab world and vice versa, or gender roles.

Please comment and let me (and everyone else) know what you would like to do for our next DVC.
