ConnecTA is a platform where we bring people from U.S. and China into direct conversations via Zoom/Wechat. We seek to create a safe space for communication amidst the distrust and hostility among two countries. In doing so, our members can demystify the aspects of other countries by directly talking to a peer across the Pacific as well as foster cultural understanding.

We don’t limit the means (email, text, voicecall, video chat) or the themes of conversations  (Language learning, News, Daily lives, anything people have consent on). We make the talk happen.
