While India and Pakistan faced each other on the cricket pitch January 5-6, teams of exchange alumni from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh engaged in the xBorder Games. Using social media tools like Google+, Storify, and Twitter, two teams comprised of alumni from each country competed against each other in a digital scavenger hunt. The xBorder Games connected 45 alumni separated by geographic, cultural, and linguistic lines, created new friendships, and increased cross-cultural understanding. U.S. Embassies in Islamabad, New Delhi and Dhaka organized the event.
