EARTH CHARTER ONENESS BOOK PROJECT: GLOBAL CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

Have you ever experienced moments of deep connection with the world around you? Do you have stories or photos that illustrate the oneness of life? We warmly welcome you to become part of the Earth Charter Oneness Book Project...

THE CALL:
Earth Charter International invites you to reflect upon moments when you have suddenly felt a deep sense of oneness or connection with the world around you. We are seeking personal stories and photos on this theme of connection from a great diversity of ages, cultures, religions, and walks of life. Submissions will be selected from every region of the world, and published in a book to be released internationally in 2009. For full details and the Youtube version of the Call, please visit: http://www.earthcharterinaction.org/publication. Please share with us your voice, your images, and your inspiration!

THE QUESTION:
The question we are inviting you to respond to has two parts: When have you experienced moments of unexpected connection or oneness in your life, and how has this feeling inspired and sustained your vision, hope, and action for a better world?

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Stories and photos that come out of your personal experience and speak to unexpected moments of connection. This connection could be with anything that has inspired in you a feeling of oneness – with a culture, a stranger, a mountain, a community, or a passing butterfly. These may stem from experiences of the everyday or the extraordinary, from a random encounter that expanded your sense of connection to a defining revelation in your life. Ultimately, we want to hear about those moments of connection that have had a meaningful impact on your everyday life. Stories should be 1-4 pages in length (500-2400 words). Full details are available at www.earthcharterinaction.org/publication.

WHEN IS THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS?  
Send in your submissions by August 15th, 2008 (12 midnight GMT) for first priority consideration.

HOW TO SUBMIT?
Visit http://www.earthcharterinaction.org/publication for full rules, guidelines, and instructions.

I wanted to tell you that this June from 6-12th of June I am going to Brussels and I want to share one bulgarian documentary movie there with the other particiopants. I was wondering if you can help me out to find the movie "Chija e tza pesen?" od Adela Peeva, bulgarian documentary about a folk song whose its origin is not known and all the balkan countries claim it as their national folk treasure. So can you help me to find it please!
By the way on the way to Brussels I am flying through Sofia, and I have couple of flights inbetween flights so we might meet. :)
Thank you in advance!
Cheers,
Nina

At 12:05pm on May 6th, 2008, Mariam Atash Nawabi said…: Rosen-- you have done very interesting work. I just joined this online community and am so inspired by the work of many around the world. It is easy to feel that one lives in a "cocoon" and to just read and hear about the difficulties that others are facing in our world. It is another to take action and do something about it. I work on issues related to Afghanistan in many areas and you can check out my professional endeavours at:

www.amdi-international.com
www.planetpixproductions.com
www.artizansarai.com

As you can see, I am quite busy, but the theme across all of my ventures is social corporate responsibility- I feel that I am a social entrepreneur and I am motivated by ideas that create economic value to people in developing countries, but that can become sustainable business models in the west, allowing one's vocation to be creating "virtuous cycles."

I am also a human rights activist and work on projects to help people in rural areas of Afghanistan:

www.aschianafoundation.org
www.nooristanfoundation.org

If you ever have any linkages to make with Afghanistan, let me know. Who knows, maybe there will be boutiques in Bulgaria who want to carry handmade products by Afghan women....

Best,
Mariam
