CASA 2018 speaker Ambassador Farhod Salim

As part of the Center for Afghanistan Studies (CAS) strategic plan to expand its activities and scope beyond Afghanistan to the countries around it, and to provide opportunities for UNO students and community members to learn more about Central Asia and South Asia (CASA), CAS is planning to hold its annual CASA Celebration Week March 25 - 28, 2019.

Activities during CASA Week will include a series of lectures and presentations on the topics concerning Central Asia-South Asia, cultural activities by UNO students and photo exhibitions.

The CASA Celebration Week will take place in the month of March every year since March corresponds with New Year Celebrations in Central Asia-South Asian countries. Members of the UNO community, as well as Creighton, UNL, and other schools around the metro area, are invited to participate. Activities during this week will also be open to public.

The Honorable H.E. Javlon Vakhabov, the Ambassador of Uzbekistan to U.S., will provide an opening keynote for CASA Week on Monday, March 25, at noon in the Milo Bail Student Center. Ambassador Richard Hoagland will also be a guest of honor at UNO for the 2018 CASA Week Celebrations.
