Please Distribute Widely!!!
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: [link="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.
WHO ARE WE?
The Earth Charter is a widely recognized, global consensus statement on ethics and values for a more just, sustainable, and peaceful future. You can find out more at www.earthcharter.org.
