My name is Sia Nyasari Temu from Tanzania.  I lived in an intentional intercultural community in Nairobi Kenya for 13 years. I am professionally a science teacher, specializing in mathematics and physics. I joined Maryknoll Sisters in 2003. I worked in Kenya as part of the Maryknoll Sisters Peacebuilding Team between 2006 and 2014. I have facilitated intercultural living workshops in both male and female religious houses in Kenya. From 2008-2014 I was a participant and a facilitator of Conversations for Social Change Program in different parts of Kenya which were experiencing conflict. I earned a Bachelor of Art in Theology from Jesuit School of Theology at Hekima University College (Hekima is a Constituency College of Catholic University of Eastern Africa) in Nairobi. Currently, I am applying my knowledge and experience in theology with women religious as well as lay people in a parish. I continue practicing intercultural living in my own community as well as facilitating other diverse groups in creating space to allow to allow all voices to be heard.
