for World Peace - My / Our <BR>>>> contribution<BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>>> Dear Filiz and you others,<BR>>>>> I was involved in it as the facilitator together with Yaari, <BR>>>>> Anna,Dominik and Vera (essentially the same team we had at the <BR>>>>> meeting of 200+ Imams and Rabbis earlier this year in Sevilla, you <BR>>>>> can see all of them in the open space world map).<BR>>>>> The conference started Sunday July 2nd and closed on Thursday <BR>>>>> morning, July 6. The open space part began on Monday afternoon and <BR>>>>> closed on Wednesday evening.<BR>>>>> There were 8 breakout sessions (which made it the longest os I ever <BR>>>>> facilitated), 40 issues, 34 reports and 30 action proposals with <BR>>>>> concrete steps...all in all a normal os-event.<BR>>>>> There were about 20 Israelis and 20
Palestinians and 60+ people from <BR>>>>> other places interested in Peace in that region.<BR>>>>> People in attendance from the region like Avner Haramati from Israel <BR>>>>> and Carol Daniel-Kasbari from Palestine could tell you more about <BR>>>>> what happened there and what it means...I just experienced the <BR>>>>> normal peaceful process of open space with lots of excited people.<BR>>>>> The call for someone to coordinate all of this is both common and at <BR>>>>> the same time an issue that the person feeling this call can follow <BR>>>>> through on. In fact, some got together and had a pretty well worked <BR>>>>> out plan including the financing to create an internet platform to <BR>>>>> do just that.<BR>>>>><BR>>>>> One participant summed it up in the Closing Circle (similarly to <BR>>>>> what ho observed and
recorded in "The Practice of Peace" at the <BR>>>>> gathering in Rome a couple of years ago)with the words:<BR>>>>> "Everyday looking at the reports on television, listening to the <BR>>>>> radio, reading the newspapers windows to hell open up for me. Here a <BR>>>>> window to heaven opened."<BR>>>>> The productive, peaceful quality of this event in the face of what <BR>>>>> happens in the war zones many participants came from is a miracle.<BR>>>>><BR>>>>> Since there was an agreement not to take pictures and not to produce <BR>>>>> a book of proceedings and not to copy the action proposals <BR>>>>> participants now will rely on their ingenuity and their <BR>>>>> selforganized very detailed contact list to continue the work.<BR>>>>><BR>>>>> Greetings from Berlin getting ready to fire up the barbecue for 3 of
<BR>>>>> my grandchildren visiting ....<BR>>>>> See you in Moscow in 3 weeks<BR>>>>> mmp<BR>>>>><BR>>>>> Filiz Telek wrote:<BR>>>>>> Apparently there was another “open space” for middle east <BR>>>>>> peace..anyone was involved in it?<BR>>>>>><BR>>>>>> Monday, 10 July 2006<BR>>>>>><BR>>>>>> To all Peace Workers;<BR>>>>>><BR>>>>>> the conference at the Lasalle-Institute "Jerusalem, City of Peace" <BR>>>>>> has finished. For three long days about 120 people met, guided and <BR>>>>>> accompanied by the method of "open space" in order to communicate <BR>>>>>> about visions, possible projects, and new possibilities of <BR>>>>>> cooperation. Considering the urgency of the current situation it is <BR>>>>>> debatable whether
the methods of „open space“ can achieve <BR>>>>>> satisfactory result. “Open space” is able to start the activity and <BR>>>>>> the dialogue among the participants, but then I was missing the <BR>>>>>> coordinating, co-guiding element, the person who keeps the overview <BR>>>>>> and participates form there in a guiding way. For me the <BR>>>>>> extraordinary quality of the conference consisted in the fact that <BR>>>>>> people gathered who won’t meet normally. It belongs to the <BR>>>>>> consistent method of the representatives of the Lasalle-Institute <BR>>>>>> that they want to initiate the change on government level as well <BR>>>>>> as on the level of projects which are working at the very basis. A <BR>>>>>> big thanks goes to Pater Niklaus Brantschen, Anna Gamma and Pia <BR>>>>>> Gyger for their
tireless and unconditional commitment for peace in <BR>>>>>> the Middle East.<BR>>>>>> Results of the conference: new contacts were made, architectural <BR>>>>>> models for Jerusalem as a world city of peace were presented. The <BR>>>>>> film “We Refuse to be Enemies” was presented and found good <BR>>>>>> resonance. Letters to decisive representatives of governments and <BR>>>>>> religions were worded in order to declare Jerusalem a weapon-free <BR>>>>>> zone. My impression is that many peace workers do not yet see how <BR>>>>>> much we must change structures and systems and to what extend we <BR>>>>>> are challenged to develop new functioning models. Would the world <BR>>>>>> evolve as much about peace as it just evolved about football, we <BR>>>>>> were for sure on the winners’ side. This is the focus
for which we <BR>>>>>> from the Healing<BR>>>>>> Biotope I participated. With patience and persistence we direct our <BR>>>>>> perseverance and our continual work to this point again and again. <BR>>>>>> In me it causes the radicalisation to reinforce my commitment for <BR>>>>>> the humanization of money and to set off for my way to motivate <BR>>>>>> business people to invest their<BR>>>>>> money in the development of models for peace villages. With the <BR>>>>>> amount of money that one tank costs we could do powerful steps of <BR>>>>>> manifestation in the global peace movement. The developing peace <BR>>>>>> villages would be something like the points of crystallization and <BR>>>>>> energy accelerators to make one perspective of the peace movement <BR>>>>>> visible. I phrased a new
pilgrim-text that I want to send out in <BR>>>>>> the Ring of Power this time.
