THE CHALLENGE
Alienation, exclusion, violence and cultural conflict pose a great threat to people’s lives and well-being. When these ills afflict the youth, as they now increasingly do in many parts of Europe, the threats and risks to society are magnified, and the very basis of society is attacked.
The deterioration of economic conditions brought about by the on-going global economic downturn accentuates the difficulties of overcoming insecurity, violence and confrontation in society. Rising unemployment leads to more anxiety, aggression, and civil unrest, especially among the youth.
While young people are sometimes perceived as a serious threat to peaceable communities, they play a critical role in building trust and harmony in an intercultural society. The main challenge is to engage the youth and their boundless energies for positive social transformation. In them lies our greatest hope and resource for achieving durable peace and unity in our culturally diverse societies.
THE RESPONSE
In response to this challenge, the Art of Living Foundation and the International Association for Human Values have launched the YES – We Can! Community Leadership Program (CLP). The mission of the YES – We Can! CLP is to empower youth to create intercultural harmony and a stress-free, violence-free society.
YES – We Can! CLP has three program goals:
- Imbibe – leadership skills and human values
- Involve – communities and people from diverse cultures
- Inspire – for positive social transformation and change
THE INSPIRATION
The inspiration behind the YES – We Can! CLP is international humanitarian and spiritual leader H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. His mission of uniting the world into a violence-free global family has inspired millions to work towards sustainable peace, community development, and harmony in diversity among peoples and cultures. His programs have reached an estimated 300 million people worldwide, spanning over 140 countries.
In India, H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar designed a Youth Leadership Training Program that has brought about positive social change in more than 30,000 villages in Asia, Latin America and Africa.
In Europe, H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar designed the YES – We Can! CLP to work towards harmony in diversity and a stress-free and violence-free society. 122 participants from 30 countries will take part in this 6 month training. Module 1 will be personally taught by H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
To achieve its mission and goals, the YES – We Can! CLP comprises of three modules, see details on Program page.
