Youth Congress Munich

Last week Wednesday to Saturday (31. to 3rd) I spent at the Youth Congress in Munich. A group of about 8 Students, Teachers and others have invited to this Youth Congress the second time now. Last year Nicanor Perlas was there, speaking about Globalisation, this year we had the honor to hear Hans Peter Dürr, a nuclear physicist and activist in many fields of civil society. Amazing, how at 78 a man can be so full of energy and so convinced that making a change is the only thing that can help us out of this situation.
In workshops and the World Cafe a lot of topics were touched on regarding the theme of the congress "peace and war and what do you want?". Everyone took away something, if not an answer then definitely a new way of approaching a question.

We are looking forward to next year!
