CGA Alum's Far-reaching Global Impact
<p>“Re:Coded was born from my time at CGA”, MS in Global Affairs alum Alexandra Clare explains. She had the idea in 2014 on a trip to Iraq as part of her master's program. Currently, she is responsible for providing strategic leadership to the organization, which developed and monitored over 50 education programs empowering over 5,000 young people from under-resourced communities to upskill and launch meaningful careers in tech. She also leads Re:Coded's fundraising strategy and creates partnerships to advance Re:Coded's strategy and vision.</p>

Forever grateful for the community she found at CGA, she states, “I am proud to be part of a network of incredible changemakers globally."</p>
