Thanks to everyone who made it to the launch party last Wednesday - it was a good night. The turn-out definitely beat our expectations. Lots of people have suggested making this a monthly drinks, with other activities in between. What do you think?
A few people asked about the name of the group. The initial idea was indeed to gather together diplomats and government development types. Given the response YDA has had across Amman, from those working in development more broadly, or in private business, or studying Arabic, we quickly decided that ours should be a wider social group. We'll stick with the name, but our events will not be stuffy!
