On Tuesday, August 18, three URI peacebuilding leaders were featured on the Nonprofit Report. This weekly webinar series, hosted by m/Oppenheim Associates, discusses important topics of social good with nonprofit leaders around the United States.
In this episode of the Nonprofit Report, host Mark Oppenheim, founder of m/Oppenheim Associates, leads a conversation with:
- The Rev. Victor H. Kazanjian, Jr., URI Executive Director
- Maria Crespo, Director of Cooperation Circle Support
- Isabelle Ortega, Director of Global Communications and Strategic Planning
"We are all leaders, in all religions. We have to show a path...the path of collaboration. Of working together, impacting the world...that I want to see for my children and the children of my children."
- Maria Crespo
"There's the point where conflct has already broken out...and then there's the point before that. URI is particularly commited to creating the conditions that mitigate the need for conflict as a response to differences of opinion...creating other pathways to solving problems."
- The Rev. Victor H. Kazanjian, Jr.
"What we're seeing within our network is an emergence of actvity...doing unto others as you'd have them do unto you, loving your neigbor...every day."
