Open Hands Initiative


  • Mission

    The Open Hands Initiative is dedicated to improving people-to-people understanding and international friendship through exchanges and other projects that focus on our basic shared values and common humanity. Our goal is to highlight the common humanity that is shared by all people and all cultures from around the word. We believe that we all have much to share and learn from one another.

    About Us
