Duane and his wife Clare Ann spent three weeks in West Papua meeting people and arranging for future events. Clare Ann is the Program Director for Mennonite Central Committee Indonesia and was visiting MCC programs as well. While in Manokwari Duane was invited to do a seminar for faculty of Cenderawasih University and leaders from local non-governmental organizations as an introduction to the cross-cultural conflict concepts he has developed. Twenty-five people attended. The focus of interest was on application of the concepts to interethnic violence as is being experienced throughout Indonesia. A follow-up training is planned for the future.
