Imagining Ourselves Exhibit
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. Tell us yours.
