Saludos Navideños de la WACC en el 2011 Imprimir Correo electrónico

Nosotros vivimos en un mundo de personas diversas, un mundo de culturas y religiones diversas, juntos celebramos lo que somos. La diversidad es esencial para la humanidad. ¡Feliz Navidad!

Fijian: Keimami bula ena dua ga na vanua ia keimami duidui, Duidui enai vakarau ni bula kei na lotu, keimami marautaka ni keimami duidui. Yaga sara na duidui oqo ena bula veimaliwai ni tamata kecega,Me nomuni na marau  ni Siga ni sucu!. (Traducido por Rev. Akuila Yabaki, Presidente de WACC-Pacífico.)

IZQUIERDA: Esta imagen representa el símbolo de la luz que todos compartimos, sin importar  nuestros trasfondos religiosos. Ella nos recuerda que la Paz está en el centro de todas nuestras importantes festividades  religiosas, incluyendo la Navidad! (Por Sharon Bhagwan-Rolls, Vice Presidenta de WACC-Pacifico)

CENTRO: Al enviar nuestros mejores deseos de una Navidad feliz y bendecida, pensamos en nuestras víctimas de las pruebas nucleares, sus familias y sus hijos e hijas en particular. Esta crisis mundial afecta grandemente al Pacífico. La niñez  inocente en nuestras tarjetas de navidad solo están pidiendo que el medio ambiente futuro de sus atolones sea protegido de los cambios climáticos causados por el egoísmo de las y los adultos de hoy.  (Por Linda Maea Tematua, Miembro del Comité Ejecutivo Regional WACC-Pacífico)

DERECHA: Una mujer del área rural prepara "rangoli". Una adaptación de nuestros símbolos y prácticas culturales para las celebraciones y un recordatorio de los múltiples papeles de la mujer en el hogar, incluyendo la preparación de las festividades y las celebraciones. (Por Sharon Bhagwan-Rolls, Vice Presidenta de WACC-Pacifico).

Nosotros agradecemos a los miembros del Comité Ejecutivo  Regional  de la WACC-Pacifico por enviarnos  las imágenes y el mensaje para los saludos Navideños de este año.

1. Kenya Pastoralist Journalist Network (KPJN)

WACC has been supporting the Kenya Pastoralist Journalist Network (KPJN) to carry out a peace education and awareness project to address the different factors that fuel conflict and retard development, including cattle rustling, direct marginalization, resource competition (e.g. water, pasture and salt licks), prevalence of small arms and light weapons. The project stressed traditional governance systems and traditional methods of conflict resolution, promoted understanding and exchange between rival communities, trained ex-combatants on alternative livelihoods and re-integration into society.
