Episode 4, Reflections on the Asian Leaders Program

Join us for a conversation with 3 students from the Asian Leader’s Program (ALP) as they reflect on the past 9 months at UPEACE. This Podcast provides a space for them to share their stories and bring closure to their journeys at UPEACE. We hear how they became a part of the ALP program, how their time at UPEACE has influenced their perspectives on peace, and they share how they are going to put their newly-found skills into practice.

The Asia Leaders Program is a shared initiative between the Nippon Foundation (TNF), the University for Peace (UPEACE), and Ateneo de Manila University (AdMU), which aims to provide Asian students – from countries where English is not widely spoken – with an opportunity to pursue a peace-related graduate degree. For more information about the ALP please visit www.upeace.org/alp.

The third instalment of Perspectives on Peace features an interview with the Vagina-Friendly Folks of the upcoming production of the Vagina Monologues at UPEACE. We speak with the Directors and Production Designer for the show, taking place at UPEACE’s Quizur Campus, Costa Rica on March 14th & 15th. Tickets are 2 000 Colones (4 USD) in advance or 2 5000 Colones (5 USD) at the door, and can be purchased from any cast member at UPEACE up to the event. All proceeds go to the International VDay campaign & La Sala, a local woman’s organization in San Jose run by sex workers for sex workers. All are welcome to attend and join in the uprising against gender-based violence!

This podcast features stories from interviews conducted with community members at the University for Peace on the International Day of Peace, September 21st, 2012. This year’s theme for the International Day of Peace is a Sustainable Peace for a Sustainable future so we thought it would be timely to make oral history by sharing stories.
