Peace Week 2010

For those interested in peacemaking, an ideal conference might include dozens of peace workers throughout the world, gathered together for a week of panels and conversations. In 2010, such a gathering took place. Not in a physical space but in the virtual world of the internet. Using teleconference technology, The Shift Network and The Peace Alliance teamed up to bring 75 peace luminaries to the web, allowing anyone with a computer or a smart phone to listen in live and even interact with the guests. The resulting archive of conversations is also available free online. On this edition of Peace Talks Radio, one of the architechts of Peace Week, Stephen Dinan of The Shift Network, guides host Paul Ingles through samples of 8 of the more compelling conversations of Peace Week. You'll hear youth peace building experts like Aqeela Sherrills, Kimmie Weeks, Ocean Robbins, and Rich Dutra-St.John. Also Nobel Peace Laureate Betty Williams, peace economics expert Steve Killelea, peace walker Audri Scott Williams, and U.S. Congressman Dennis Kucinich.
