Pre-conference Activities

While COVID-19 separated us physically, such social media activities as #CAEFWorld have strengthened the virtual interconnectedness between the members of the U.S.-CAEF community. Participants of this fun challenge were asked to tag the alumni affiliated with the countries posted on Instagram and Facebook. Check out the U.S.-CAEF alumni map below.

We picked out some of our most memorable events and put together a video slideshow. The project turned into a vibrant mosaic representing 11 cohorts, 306 alumni of diverse ethnic backgrounds from five Central Asian countries.

On March 14, the Alumni Association launched a six-month alumni mentoring program to foster a collaborative learning relationship between different generations of U.S.-CAEF fellows and alumni across borders and connect them with industry leaders who can help guide their careers. Of the 70 program participants, 55 were U.S.-CAEF alumni and fellows, while 15 were external mentors comprising Central Asian business leaders and representatives of  U.S. Government-sponsored programs such as the Edmund S. Muskie Graduate Program, FLEX, UGRAD, and Peace Corps.

Alumni Talks are designed to help alumni exchange their knowledge with each other and current fellows on a variety of topics pertaining not only to professional development but other subjects of interest as well. Some of the examples from recent sessions are as follows:

  • Alexey Yan: Fundamentals of Taxation

  • Rustamjon Vakhobov: Employment and Goal-Setting

  • Nasiba Nurmatova: Tourism Industry in Central Asia

  • Dinara Atantayeva: Building a Successful Career After University

  • Zhamilia Klycheva: Pursuing a Graduate Degree in the US

Following in the footsteps of their predecessors, the new alumni officers arranged several meetings with the following business experts in the recent months:

Caffè 21 informal alumni meetups are designed to foster greater interaction between alumni of different cohorts. Alumni moderators prepare icebreakers, topics for discussions, and other fun activities to keep alumni engaged.

21 Questions– Short videos hosted by current fellows feature 21 alumni answering one of the 21 questions posed by fellows. Alumni answered questions and provided helpful tips on a variety of topics related to their academic pursuits, career paths, personal growth, and values.

Social media activities have been organized by alumni and fellows to create an engaging virtual environment and help foster a sense of cohesion and unity among all members of the U.S.-CAEF community. One such activity was #CAEFFACES, a game where pixelated faces were posted on Instagram stories for viewers to guess the right alumni.

Fun, interactive events help alumni get together, communicate, forge new relationships, and maintain existing connections. Organizing them during the pandemic was not easy, but our alumni and fellows exceeded all expectations. The wide variety of photos and videos on the alumni’s Instagram page reflects the organizers’ hard work and creativity. Here are just some examples:

  • Letters to my 18 year old self
  • Snow Leopard Run 2021
  • Toyboss Night Run 2021
