I just got this feedback letter:
Dear Ronit,
Our very sincere thanks for your wonderful presentation at our recent Annual General Meeting, on the topic: ‘Helping Children and Young People Address Racism and Prejudice’.
We always try to have at our AGM a speaker who will challenge and stretch our ideas about the way we, as a small interfaith women’s association, can fulfil our aspiration towards building a culture of peace. Issues of racism and prejudice are at the heart of this challenge.
Your presentation about the Together for Humanity project, and in particular the findings from your surveys of children and young people, as well as descriptions of some of the processes you use in your transformational work, was a truly engaging experience for all those present. This was evident from the high degree of participation throughout, in questions and comments to yourself and the general discussion which the ideas provoked.
My own hope is that some of our members may have been motivated by your presentation to volunteer for the Together for Humanity project should the opportunity arise. We look forward to continuing contact with you and your important work.
Sincerely,
Wendy Flannery
Coordinator
Believing Women for a Culture of Peace
