Without tools to measure that difference, it becomes harder to motivate action and get support. This interactive panel discussion brings together experts in the community (MyPeg and the Compassion Index) and global indexes (Global Peace Index) designed to highlight indicators that can be used to promote action and positive peace.

Burma is a country shaped by Buddhism and military dictatorship. One ethnic minority, Rohingya, is facing state organized campaign of killings as of 1978.

The purpose of Blossoms from Ash is to make the world aware of the Rohingya, the trials they have been through in their rightful homeland, and the challenges they face today. This film seeks to move audiences around the world to raise their collective voice about the crimes perpetrated by the government of Myanmar, and to pressure the governments protecting Myanmar from international action. Further, this documentary seeks to advance the efforts of the NGOs helping the Rohingya people, primarily by raising funds for improvements to the educational facilities serving the refugee children.

In the last couple of years, there has been a push by artists and activists to have Emancipation Day — the day that Slavery was abolished throughout the British Empire in 1843 — recognized as an official holiday. To celebrate International Day of Peace, Welcome Collective is collaborating with POP Montreal and Emancipation Arts to shine a light on this effort by hosting an online panel to discuss the importance of Emancipation and Peace. The discussion will be facilitated and led by Ngozi Paul who is an award winning stage and screen actress, writer, director and producer who is committed to telling stories from an Afro-centric perspective through her socially and culturally innovative work. The artists and activists on the panel will discuss what emancipation means for them, how they are fighting for it and embodying it through their art and their activism, and how we can all embody these values in our own lives.

This webinar will address the notion of “living together” in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the possibility of rehabilitating this idea, one which has been overlooked by more than 15 years of identity debates in Québec. We will propose several points of discussion on lockdown and re-opening in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic as a potential for rethinking the social bond. First, we will examine the political models of planning for living together adopted by different States. Secondly, we will attempt to ask how living together matters from a societal perspective and to question the role of cities in rebuilding social ties. Finally, we will propose an exploration of situations and concrete solutions for imagining life after the pandemic.

Recent events have shaken up the status quo in the contemporary art ecosystem and call for a greater awareness of the biases, individual and collective, associated with systemic racism, as well as an understanding of their genesis.
The duty to consult is of importance, and this is therefore the mission of this discussion panel, which will first aim to discuss these realities, leading to the identification of the needs behind the instigation of truly inclusive practices in the field of contemporary art. Subsequently, this conversation will allow the setting up of initiatives helping to grow and improve the visibility and place offered to contemporary art players from diverse backgrounds.
The panel, presented by Résidence, will bring together a variety of actors of the contemporary art ecosystem, such as Cheryl Sim, Ph. D., Curator and Managing Director at PHI Foundation for Contemporary Art in Montréal; Diane Gistal, researcher, independent curator and founder of the Montréal organization celebrating Afro-descendant cultures and history Nigra Iuventa; visual artist Stanley Février, who was recently awarded the Prix en art actuel du Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, as well as visual artist, curator and galerist Rad Hourani.

Due to the deep concern for our children being in contact with a carrier of covid, the Rotary Elementary School Peace Walk planning committee has made the difficult decision of cancelling this year’s walk. In lieu schools will recieve a brand new video that was filmed in the CMHR with two exceptional elementary school students talking about the impact of the residential schools. The video will be an excellent tool to help schools plan events for Peace Days within a framework of Every Child Matters and the upcoming Orange Shirt Day on September 30th.
Rotary Club of Winnipeg Peace Builder Committee in collaboration with Rotary 5550 World Peace Partners, CCUNESCO, Canadian Museum for Human Rights, and Manitoba Education are organizing the 8th Annual Rotary Elementary School Peace Walk. This year’s theme ‘Every Child Matters’ is significant in teaching our children the power of using their voices in the promotion of Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action. Due to the ongoing impact of the pandemic in our country, this September we are offering two ways for schools to participate in the Elementary School Peace Walk:

It is nearly a decade now such a festival is being organized, and since last year it has also been shared by Montreal Rotary clubs. Please find the details of the past festival here: https://www.peacedays.ca/ You can find CRRIC's 2020 events here in this festival : https://www.crric.org/past-events/. Its webinars can be found here: https://www.crric.org/crric-video-archive/ CRRIC being an event participant in this upcoming festival, plans to arrange a webinar to hear from you directly about the challenges and opportunities in the field of peace, conflict, justice studies, since students from Bangladesh often arrive here to pursue degrees. Winnipeg is the only city in Canada, which hosts three distinct Universities that offer graduate and Ph.D. level courses in this discipline. Besides academic programs, your institution also offers practicum studies, which might be of great interest to a broader audience. On the other hand, BRAC and NSU in Bangladesh have taken important academic initiatives about the Rohingya crisis that is of interest to the Canadian audience. Our proposed event could showcase some of the cross cutting peacebuilding works.

A Call has been made by the Turtle Lodge for a Global Sunrise Ceremony next Wednesday September 22, 2021. JOIN us in your area, through your way of doing ceremony, to unify as the human family, for this Global Sunrise Ceremony on the day of the Equinox! *These spiritual efforts are needed more than ever and must take the lead in our global efforts to address climate change.* We are very much looking forward to the initiation of this act of spiritual unity. We will be coming together at Sunrise to honour the Grandfather Sun and Mother Earth, seeking their guidance as Mother Earth prepares to give birth to a new life. We hope you will join us in this collective act of unity, conducting a Sunrise Ceremony in your area at your respective Sunrise, as we greet the sun in Ceremony, offering our prayers and intentions on the day of the Fall Equinox on Turtle Island (North America), in a Spiritual Call to unite Humanity. There is a spiritual light placed in every living being, visibly expressed in the sun. It is through aligning with the great forces of the sun that we seek a return to the Spirit: the guidance and strength to live the original instructions we were all given as human beings. Please spread the word and invite those in your circle to join us as we offer our prayers and do this ceremony in our own unique traditions in a collective way. We invite you to join us in this Prayer offered in Gratitude by Elder Elizabeth Kapu’uwailani Lindsey and Elder Dr. Dave Courchene (Nitamabit/Nii Gaani Aki Inini) To the Great Mystery, who is known by many names, whose vision we call Creation, thank you for breathing your Spirit into Mother Earth and for bringing her to life and for imbuing all living beings with your shimmering Light. Humanity has fallen asleep and neglected our sacred duty to care for your Vision of Creation. Today we call upon the forces of the Universe, the Sun, the Stars, the Moon, and the Earth, to help awaken humanity to our original instructions. Led by the Spirit and the love we have for all our children and the land, it will be through a collective, unified approach that we will be guided to walk in a good way, and find the help we need to bring back a sacred understanding of life. It is through our humility and gratitude to the Great One and the wonders of the Great Spirit that we place all children at the centre of our efforts, united in One Love, as One Voice. In our hearts we believe in Love, the greatest force we all have, that connects us to all of Creation. We realize that as the Earth brings changes, we must change. We must all become People of the Heart. Kinanaakomigo Manitou! With gratitude to our Great Creator!
