New Resource Available--The IPCR Journal/Newsletter (Winter 2010-2011 issue). This 48 page issue features a most comprehensive introduction to The IPCR Initiative (a 13 page paper titled “The IPCR Initiative: Creating a Multiplier Effect of a Positive Nature”), and parts of a work-in-progress on a concept called “Peace Returned on Resources Invested” (PRORI). A free pdf file is accessible at the website of The Interfaith Peacebuilding and Community Revitalization (IPCR) Initiative, at www.ipcri.net (in both the “Keynote Documents” section of the homepage, and “The IPCR Journal/Newsletter” section).
A central focus of The IPCR Initiative is its advocacy for a combination Community Visioning Initiatives, "Community Teaching and Learning Centers" with ongoing workshops, and "sister community" relationships as a way of generating an exponential increase in our collective capacity to overcome the challenges of our times.
A very important feature of the Community Visioning Initiatives the IPCR Initiative proposes is the job fairs which come at the end of the Community Visioning Initiative process. Such job fairs provide opportunities for all key stakeholders in the community (businesses, organizations, institutions, government, etc.) to demonstrate their upgraded awareness—and their interest in the welfare of the community—by offering and facilitating new employment opportunities… and thus assisting with a just transition from patterns of investment which in only limited ways represent solutions to prioritized challenges to patterns of investment which in many ways represent solutions to prioritized challenges.
All IPCR documents are accessible for free, at the website of The IPCR Initiative (www.ipcri.net ).
