ECOLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY & ACTIVISM: THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED

Date: Sunday 14th May 2006
Time: 2.15pm to 4.45pm

Venue: 4nd Floor, Muslim World League, 46 Goodge Street, London, W1T 4LU (entrance on the corner of Charlotte Street); Nearest Tube: Goodge Street (Northern Line)

With Special Guests: 

Justine Huxley & Helen Gilbert   (St Ethelburga's Centre for Reconciliation and Peace)

In an attempt to change the outer world, it can be easy, within an activist setting, to avoid examining ourselves. Yet, what kind of world do we really want, and how can we take a stand for those qualities, as part of the process of activism? How do we view those with whom we engage, such as others in the Muslim and faith communities, the political and corporate world, and the earth as a whole? And how does our viewpoint affect our actions, and our means of engagement? Join us for a unique opportunity at this months LINE meeting, in which we will explore these and other essential questions. This event will be of value to environmentalists, peace activists and anyone else interested in being a more effective campaigner. As always, there will also be a chance to hear about past and upcoming environmental activities LINE is involved with.
