Symposia
Voices of Latin America
Australian Schools: Educators and Students
Inspired by the 2004 Barcelona Parliament, the city of Monterrey, Mexico stepped forward and orchestrated a unique social, cultural and interreligious event that attracted thousands of participants. The 2007 Monterrey Forum invited the Parliament to participate in a significant way, which in turn served as an important bridge toward developing a close relationship between the Parliament and the interreligious communities of Mexico. Since then, through the Partner Cities Network, headed by Zabrina Santiago, the Parliament has sought to deepen and enrich ties with and among the various religious and spiritual communities of Latin America. Partner Cities Associate Ruth Broyde Sharone, who visited four Latin American countries this year - Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Argentina - will facilitate this Symposium dedicated to this year's participants in Melbourne from Latin America. This will be an interactive symposium in Spanish, offering opportunities to network and examine interreligious challenges that are particular to Latin America. The goals are twofold: (1) to develop better communication among the interreligious communities of Latin America and (2) to connect the communities individually and collectively with the global Parliament.
Children and young people are on a journey of spiritual discovery and learning, doubt and questioning, wonder and fear. They have a compelling curiosity about the world, its people and what lies beyond. This symposium provides a major professional opportunity for teachers involved in interreligious and intercultural studies, as well as world religions, values and conflict resolution studies. Educators of many religious and spiritual traditions will share their diverse experiences and expertise with symposium participants. Teachers at all levels of the educational curriculum - primary, secondary slower and upper) and tertiary - will find sessions that are sure to inspire them with new ideas for themselves and for their students.

En Español: Inspirada por el Parlamento de Barcelona de 2004, la ciudad de Monterrey, México se puso a la vanguardia y orchestró un evento social, cultural e interreligioso que atrajo miles de participantes. El Forum de Monterrey del año 2007 invitó la participación del Parlamento para servir como un puente importante y para desarrollar relaciones estrechas entre el Parlamento y las comunidades interreligiosas de México. Desde aquél entonces, por medio de la Red de Ciudades Hermanas, dirigida por Zabrina Santiago, el Parlamento ha buscado maneras de profundizar y fortalecer los vínculos con las diversas comunidades interreligiosas de America Latina. Facilitará este simposium Ruth Broyde Sharone, la representante de la Red de Ciudades Hermanas, la cual visitó cuatro países de America Latina este año: México, Costa Rica, Colombia, y Argentina. El simposium esta dedicado a los participantes de Latinoamérica que se encuentren en el Parlamento de Melbourne. Esto será un simposium interactivo en español. Ofrecerá oportunidades de "networking" y de examinar los desafios particulares de America Latina. Los objetivos son dos: (1) desarrollar mejor comunicación entre si y (2) vincular las comunidades individualmente y colectivamente con el Parlamento global. See back of book for full descriptions.
