Only free gift was a red ribbon. Red can mean heart or passion; which is something we need for peace-building. Keep up the good work.

Claudia E. Cohen said… - Hi Matthew,
I finally just had the opportunity to review the current draft of the Strategic Plan. I am delighted -- I have seen the distinction between structural and programmatic change for a while and am glad to see it so artfully embraced.
I was traveling and missed the calls but hope to be involved moving forward.
I lead the team of volunteers that documented the peace making structures and activities (as of 2008) in the Dept of State and US AID. I am particularly interested in the Advisory Councils and in building coalitions with peace-building practitioners.
