How can you build programs that reflect the international communities you hope to serve? It all starts with creating a process that centers around the needs and voices of that community. 

Ryan Boyette is the founder of To Move Mountains, an organization providing education to children and communities in areas of conflict to be equipped with the knowledge and skills to improve all aspects of their lives. When he first began his work in the Nuba Mountains, it was a big culture shock, and Ryan knew the only way to create real change was to immerse yourself in the community and build a process that centred around the needs of the Nuban people.
