Dear Friends
In this project the children are encouraged to express their innate awareness of unity and peace
through singing.
2012 In the springtime Emma Robens from England asked me if I would sing the peace songs through
Skype with children in a Camp for Sustainable Environmental Living for the Future. I sang with
different groups of children. This was a really great experience. I have now discovered that with
Skype I can reach children all over.
2012 In the autumn Katharina Weber and Bettina Lima invited me to sing with school children in my
neighborhood. Switzerland. 30 children between 7 and 9 years of age learned the songs. In this
great dynamic they learned from each other. Only the children in the third class had begun to learn
English. They liked the songs. I remember one girl dancing on the way home and singing: “Can you
hear me. Can you see me? Can you feel me? Do you know we belong all together?” In February the
school had an “open door” day. The children sang the peace songs. Some parents told me that the
children were singing the songs at home and even younger brothers and sisters sang with them. On
Youtube you can hear the children and see the drawings they did for the songs.

2013 In the autumn I got in contact with two teachers in Croatian. Vesna Marjanovic and
Maja Milek. They are now singing the songs with the school children. I will go there in the spring and
make a film and include it on Youtube.
2013 In the winter I came in contact with Gamip (Global Alliance for Ministries & Infrastructures for
Peace) I sent them the information about the project and people from 4 different countries in Africa
want to join in the project: Kenya, Burundi, Sierra Leone and 2 people from Congo.
2014 We have just uploaded a second YouTube video of Noah Songwa’s Children group from Congo.
They are singing the songs directly from the heart. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_kyDH2RxEs
! If you are singing the songs with children or if you have had some experience with the project
please let me know. And if you know someone who could be interested in working with the project it
would be a great joy for me to make contact with them.
This project is supported by ZIFF/ CIPP (Center of Integral Peace Promotion)
