Barefoot College. Gandhi’s legacy lives on | Education. The Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Education for Peace and Sustainable Development (MGIEP), to be inaugurated in New Delhi later this year, will be the latest in a long line of initiatives reminding us that Gandhi’s legacy endures. “If we are to reach real peace in this world and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with children”. These words were taken to heart by the two followers of India’s Bapu (“Father”) who founded City Montessori School – recipient of UNESCO’s 2002 Prize for Peace Education – which stands as one of many incarnations of the Mahatma’s words: the school’s core philosophy is to make “a good human being, a good member of a family, a good member of a community, a good citizen of a country, a good citizen of the world” out of their pupils via the broadest possible education for tolerance and peace.

With powerful backing and an extensive mandate, the Institute will carry Gandhi’s legacy forward, leading the new generations along the way.

LOST AND FOUND IN OUR BRAVE NEW WORLD Awakening Our Perceptions to Access the Information We Need Sundance, Utah "We're lost, but we're making good time. " --Yogi Berra A Buddhist teacher taught that the only thing we can trust in life is that the world always gives us feedback. As leaders, how do we develop the will, discipline and skills to stay open to the messages that are always there? How do we, as individuals and organizations, befriend information rather than ignore or deny it? This seminar provides the opportunity to develop skills of curiosity and discernment by working with all our sense perceptions. This will be a very lively and rich exploration of how we sharpen our perceptions as I'm partnering with my long-time colleague and friend, jazz drummer Jerry Granelli.
