Recent feedback

January 18, 2010 by Ronit Baras Leave a Comment

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

International Day of Peace 2009

September 3, 2009 by Ronit Baras 3 Comments

The Griffith University Multi-Faith Centre invites members of all communities to its International Day of Peace Commemoration on Thursday, 17 September, 2009, 7:15-9:00pm.

I will be delivering one of the key presentations of this evening.

In 2002, the United Nations designated September 21st each year as the International Day of Peace (IDP), as a day to encourage all peoples and countries to make a commitment to world unity, a global ceasefire and non-violence.

This event is an opportunity for individuals, communities and organizations to witness and participate in a multi-faith commemoration for peace. In the lead up to the IDP, it will enable participants to link with millions of people and many governments, regional and non-government organizations, faith/religious communities and educational institutions engaged in IDP events.

The Program will include:

  • A multimedia, multi-faith reflection on Peace
  • Two presentations on peacemaking
    • A lasting peace in Sri Lanka?
      The way forward from a Christian perspective
      – Rev. Pan Jordan
    • The challenge of peace-building among children and youth
      The Together for Humanity experience
      – Ronit Baras
  • Musical performances for peace

Please RSVP by September 11
