Intercultural Education – Pathways to Peace

Participants: Roberto Ruffino (AFS Italy); Carol Bellamy (World Learning); Margee Ensign (University of the Pacific); Helene-Marie Gosselin (UNESCO); Vivien Stewart (Asia Society).

So Margee shares a funny but deep story. Do we know our world? Our nation? This is the story: Margee was in a plane, and the women besides her started a conversation, with that women-typical presentation "I like your purse". So Margee answered "Thank you". And then the women goes on, what brand is it? -she said-. It's from Rwanda. I don't know that brand -the women said.

This is it. Maybe Miss South Carolina should be an exemple on this. And then Sandra Bullock saying "... and world peace".
