Barrio De Paz: Peace Town
|
|
| "Everything in society tells us to distrust others. I think it’s the other way around. We need to profoundly trust in those around us, in their potential and in who they are," the grandmotherly Nelsa Curbelo Cora says. In 1999, she walked into the violence infested city of Guayaquil, Ecuador to BE peace. Through her grassroots work, many of Guayaquil’s most dangerous gangs have disarmed, agreed to abandon violence–and now work together to rebuild their community! Watch this profile of Nelsa Curbelo Cora’s work. |

I See You
In this short video, Daniel Emuna shares his thoughts on how he is able to really see and connect with others. Among them is his desire for people to feel as he wants to feel which is to be “cared for, understood, and seen.” He sees people for who they are beyond their outward appearance. Daniel says some people believe if you give to someone, you lose something such as respect, power, resources, time. But he says, “I don’t feel like I lose anything from giving someone my time or what I have… food, resources, care. I don’t lose a thing.” He also thinks everyone contributes to who a person becomes in some way like planting “a little seed within your inner heart that might bloom some other time.” He thinks of the heart and connection space as a garden. “The garden is something that we all could tend to and we all could enjoy.” { read more }
