Kaweesi Mark is a social artist who uses his skills to empower and uplift communities. He has eight years' experience in working with children, youth, and adults across a broad spectrum of arenas, including community centers, orphanages, prisons (juvenile and adult), drug rehabilitation centers, ghettos/slums, and on the streets, and also in local and international schools and colleges. His tools include dance, creative facilitation, interactive/participatory discussions, leadership training, organizing community events and exchange programs, beat-boxing (vocal percussion), and integrating other art forms (http://kaweesimark.com). Mark is involved with the Breakdance Project Uganda and is a founding chairman of Break-Fast Jam (www.break-fastjam.com), an annual break-dance event. The Mandela Washington Fellowship will help to advance Mark's leadership and entrepreneurship skills and to expand his network. He believes that it will build his capacity and multiply his impact in many more communities and organizations.
