Near and Far, a feature that investigates the social, environmental, economic, and political ties between Madison, Southwestern Wisconsin, and the rest of the world, continues. Through interviews with community members who straddle two – or more – cultures, languages, or countries of interest and belonging, it explores the interconnected nature of the local and global – and everyone’s position in a globalized world.
Meet Archana Dhakhwa, founding member and former board member of the Nepali American Friendship Association (NAFA), hear about NAFA's myriad projects and how it builds community in and around Madison, and learn how Archana uses dance and song as tools to connect children to Nepali culture.
