S3E6: How Networks Support People Displaced by War with Khusraw Razbaan Ahmadzai
Update: 2021-02-06
Description
In this episode, I speak with Khusraw Razbaan Ahmadzai. He is a friend and colleague of my partner. While I've had the pleasure of seeing him on zoom often, we've never actually met in person. Razbaan is a proud dad as well as a network and systems engineer. He spent his early childhood in Kabul, Afghanistan before moving to Islamabad, Pakistan during the civil war in the early 90s. He returned to Afghanistan in the early 2000s and eventually relocated to the US.
In this episode we talk about:
- What it's like to grow up in a typical Afghan family
- What it feels like to be part of a community displaced by war
- The role of the Afghan diaspora in his childhood
- How networks allowed him to access professional opportunities as the situation in his home country evolved
- He reflects on his learnings and shares recommendations he has for others facing displacement
