Call for Submissions: War & Dialogue 

Launching November 1, 2006 

"When I think of how best to define my generation, these days one thing
comes to mind: war." - Lisa Ling, Journalist 

Let us take you beyond the headlines and show you how war is affecting the
lives of young women around the world-both in conflict zones and outside
them. As a result of recent fighting, millions of people are living in
diaspora, migration is the trademark of this generation. What is it like to
start a new life in a new place? 
We are all touched by war in some way, whether you are living in a conflict
zone or have never personally experienced war. We are interested in hearing
your experiences. What are your thoughts on stereotypes of certain religious
and ethnic groups, and how do you think we can tackle these issues? What are
the positive contributions young women are making towards resolving wars-
both in their own countries and globally? The media doesn't tell us all the
stories, especially once the world has moved on to the next hotspot.
<http://echo3.bluehornet.com/ct/ct.php?t=545998&c=736381988&m=m&type=1> Tell
us yours.
