Collaboration, communication, cross-cultural understanding, and improving quality of people\'s lives is what I, Rehan Allahwala, am all about. Thank you for visiting my profile. I invite you to click and watch my introduction video. What I do: A growing team of people around the world and I collaborate on the Institute of Peace. Our goal is to open the doors among different cultures—who do not know much about each other and may even feel they are enemies—to the epiphany that we all have so much more in common than not: family, survival, career, pride, challenge, community, love and more. We invite you to join us to not just want to make the world a better place, but to make it a better place for all. We also work together on our mobile phone based education system, that works with or without the Internet, and enables 2 billion people in the world—who cannot read and write their own name even in any language—to learn to read and to discover and take advantage of a plethora of career, social and educational opportunities. Here is an introduction to the mobile phone based education system:
