Accomplishing the Mission - Living
the Dream
- Children Singing Peace
Around the World, a composition by Dawn L. Ferguson, is a living prayer
for the Earth that awakens and uplifts humanity as it is sung by children
of all ages. It is a singing commitment to live peace, in harmony with
one another and the environment.
- Audio and video recordings
of CSPAW sung and danced by children in thirty languages are in process
and are being made available for global distribution.
- CSPAW encourages full
potential being and optimum health through international programs
that focus on bringing oneness to all people through the songs, music
and educational experiences of children.
- CSPAW facilitates heart-to-heart
connection between children locally and worldwide via music, art, dance,
service, play and dialogue, as CSPAW is shared youth-to-youth within
and among countries.
- CSPAW creates opportunities
for international and local gatherings to promote cross-cultural learning
and friendships, respect for differences, appreciation of similarities
and an experience of unity that celebrates diversity.
- CSPAW programs promote
reconciliation amongst all people and support the breaking of cycles
of multi-generational violence.
Activities and Projects
- Audio and video recordings
are in process. A Volume One CD/DVD of Children Singing Peace
Around the World in thirteen spoken languages and two signed languages
was published and released in July, 2005. A published single release
of CSPAW Hawaiian version was released in Spring 2003 and of the original
English version in 2001. Ultimately, thirty translations will be
recorded and all the productions will be designed as educational tools
to be integrated in youth education worldwide.
- Experiential learning
programs have naturally evolved based on the words of the song, and
are being implemented with children internationally. These activities
are currently being written up as lesson plans and collated in a teachers'
workbook to facilitate the inclusion of CSPAW materials in classroom
or homeschool settings.
- CSPAW has begun participating
in and co-creating mult-national gatherings to facilitate heart to heart
connections between children of different cultures.
- A CSPAW Youth Gathering
in Hawaii celebrating the completion of the thirty recordings
has been suggested with date to be determine.
RETURN
Mahalo to all
for the love, support and dedicated collaboration
that flows Children Singing Peace Around the World!
