Iranian Alliances Across Borders (IAAB), in partnership with Iran Studies Group (ISG), has created a resource guide which provides information for second-generation Iranians for collaboration opportunities in Iran. This resource guide aims at bringing together second-generation Iranians who have grown up in the diaspora, and Iranian institutions, such as companies, schools, and NGOs, to join in collaborative work during the visits of young second-generation Iranians. This project benefits both sides by enriching the experience of second-generation Iranians during their temporary stays in Iran and providing institutions with the fresh perspective and distinct skills of these Iranians with very little cost. |

April 4 - 6, Wellesley College, Massachusetts
Iranian Alliances Across Borders held its first Iranian-American Student Summit during the weekend of April 4th-6th, 2008 at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts.
The 2008 Student Summit brought together Iranian-American student leaders from around the country, committed to building partnerships and fostering increased future collaboration among their various student organizations. The student leaders were able to share their ideas and knowledge of issues regarding publicity tools and effective organizational management, helping them become more effective leaders in the Iranian diaspora community.
IAAB hopes to continue the Student Summit on a bi-annual basis, to build upon the foundation of leadership- and community-building set by the 2008 Student Summit.
