转向NVC

This historic transition this spring is a culmination of shared vision and values for 圣安东尼奥. In 2017, the peaceCENTER was the catalyst to have 圣安东尼奥 recognized as a Compassionate City. The City Council unanimously voted on a resolution affirming the Charter for Compassion and the International Campaign for Compassionate Cities. The International Campaign for Compassionate Cities is a global movement inspired by the Golden Rule, 或互惠伦理, which calls on each person to treat others as they would want to be treated.

“圣安东尼奥 is a city whose residents have shown time and time again that they will choose acceptance over fear and unity over division,市长罗恩·尼伦伯格说.

“The peaceCENTER at 西北维斯塔学院 within the 十大网赌正规网址官网区 will have the institutional and organizational support to ensure sustainability and future growth,雷士公司总裁李博士说. Ric下贱的. “This shift in leadership and location is an opportunity to share and replicate the collective wisdom with the next generation of peacemakers.”

This new partnership will help strengthen NVC’s existing Peace and Conflict studies program and expand its programmatic offerings. The transition and opening ceremony will take place this spring.

Since 1994, the 圣安东尼奥 peaceCENTER has nurtured peace and compassion in the community. 创始人罗莎琳Falcón科利尔，安E. Helmke, and Susan Ives are innovative, responsive, and creative in their approaches to peace. The three practical peacemakers compiled and authored a robust collection of nonviolence curriculum that became an important source and guide for many academic endeavors for peace and conflict studies program as well a toolkit for community members.
