WE ALL BELONG HERE: ROADMAP–A STRATEGY FOR LONG-TERM NONVIOLENT TRANSFORMATION
How many times have you heard someone say, where do we go from here? ROADMAP just might be an answer. Roadmap is a strategic plan drawing on Gandhian principles for long-term nonviolent transformation with the potential to unite all of our various projects and passions without sacrificing their individuality. The goal is to effect a transition from spontaneous protest to unstoppable movement. It will draw upon our individual capacities for constructive and, where necessary, direct resistant action and reinforce the unity-in-diversity of the awakening consciousness around social change. “We all belong here.”

FOUNDATIONAL RESOURCES
*The Story of Belonging, or what is termed “new story” on the wheel, frames the worldview that answers the question of “why” we think that human beings are worthy of a more dignified future than the one we perpetuated in the paradigm of radical separation (aka “old paradigm/story).
*This webinar explains the thinking that went into the strategy, reviews the various parts of the model and presents examples and explanations from each wedge of the model.
*This is a place to review the materials and begin commenting and connecting with other individuals and organizations. While it is in BETA form as we search for more sophisticated software to represent Roadmap, it’s about making critical connections to get started. Also make sure to visit the entire Metta Center for Nonviolence website.
*Stay in touch with the Metta Center, get updates about new developments in nonviolence and in the Roadmap project.

The picture is simply awesome… it gives one the feeling of authority of the self, of determining the next uncharted line of life, of great confidence in the self. It radiates the feeling that decisions are personal and never communal. It is in the self that great pleasure is driven from….an eternal fulfilling… and harmony with the great wonders of mother nature…
This is a very beautiful graphic. I will study it to see if it furthers my call.
I have experienced a very powerful and direct call to pray, fast and witness for an end to violence against unborn children.
I can’t see the next step. For now it is Stand, Fast, Pray.
only peace.
Nonviolent is essential for the peace full society , as a being a student of conflict and peace the with out violence social and political issued could be established.

Nonviolence is a process especially in the conflict zones. I am very impressed with the clip and it has a lot of messages as per my understanding but the biggest challenges we get in the field is as follows:- impunity, in the area of my training I came across several unusual things which has brought conflict and insecurity in the area. I believe the only way out is to help each and every clan to have their own schools, water catchments and grazing areas to avoid more conflict. My request to you all is to get some donors support this kind of projects and to ensure each and every child go to school. For further information you can contact me on mariamwarsame5@yahoo.com
Thanks you
