Peace Summit with the Dalai Lama 1: Welcome & Peace Pilgrim Award : Director: Emory University | Genre: Documentary | Produced In: 2007

Synopsis: Emory's president welcomes the audience to the first summit on Religion, Conflict, and Peace-building on October 21, 2007. Can the religions of the world work together to reduce violent conflict and build peaceful, pluralistic societies? This question is more challenging than ever, as we witness an escalation of global violence invoking religion. To address this challenge, Emory is holding its first in a series of summits on Religion, Conflict, and Peacebuilding. How are they making peace differently, and how are they developing new models from their own peacemaking experiences - whether it be in Khartoum, in Jerusalem, in London, or in Delhi? And how are people addressing this issue "on the ground" in cities, in neighborhoods? What are the best local peacemaking practices in places affected by religious violence? Can religion also be a source of community renewal and a force to promote the common good in such areas?
