CONGRATULATIONS NEEMA

Neema Lazier was awarded the ‘Participant of the Peace Camp Trophy’ in Zanzibar this year! Congratulations Neema!  Every year there is a peace camp as part of the Zanzibar International Film Festival organized by the Global Network of Religion for Children.  The theme of the camp this year was, “Maintain Cultural Values, Preserve Peace”. Forty-eight Teens came together from different backgrounds and cultures in Tanzania .  The aim of the camp was to show them how to keep the value of their culture and peace at the same time.  This camp is important at this time as the world grows smaller and our cultural differences can cause many misunderstandings that can lead to violence or exclusion of others.  This year Emusoi Center sent three girls.  Neema Laizer has attended the camp 2 years in a row.   The trophy was a copy of a dhow fishing boat.
