Consideration by Betty Reardon for all Peace Educators and those who seek peace. What needs to be added to the US Troop withdrawal from Afghanistan to ensure that peace will follow? I urge o to take the time and to engage is this thinking and share it with others! Please add your comments. Does UN Resolution 1325 have something to offer?

Sad news. I recently sent this note to our former Network for Peace Board: It is with great sadness that I share with you the news that Patricia L Jobling has died. Susan Ryan, her beloved partner, informed me that Pat died on April 8, after a valiant battle with cancer. Pat was a wise consultant and also a great friend. She volunteered her copious talents in management and planning to our organization over many years. She met with our Board many times at Sea Girt and at Marymount Manhattan College With her impetus we changed our name to Network for Peace through Dialogue and with her encouragement began our several major conferences. Pat understood and loved our mission. She was generous in spending her time and wisdom with us. In addition she was a dear friend. I am attaching some photos of some of our days together. I am sure they will bring back memories of the great work we did together.

This video was prepared by members of the Network for Peace through Dialogue in honor of their German partners who this year closed off their intuitional program. Enjoy !

Honoring Indigenous Peoples! I wrote this article a few years having been inspired by strong women who were working to stop human trafficking within their native community.

I always love comments back as it generates hope!

How do we halt the selling of women? For the past five years, I have participated in the annual meetings of the United Nations' Commission on the Status of Women. I am inspired by the women who come forward to share their stories, but I wonder: Are we going forward in this struggle?

I read this article this morning and found it helpful in recognizing my grief.

I am sure this would be classified as Fake News! But the virus has no boundaries and will not be influenced by words no matter what is said . Love in action and concern for the other and change to include rather than to exclude and Human Rights sharing resources for ALL is the only answer. I will try to do my small part and to stop blaming and to love more as the virus is here and growing and destroying.
