One World Week brings people together at many local events happening at around the same time, across the country and beyond, to share ideas about global issues. “More Than Enough?” is the theme for One World Week 2013.
OWW asks you to support or organise events that enable us to consider whether we:
• have had more than enough of consumer culture getting in the way of
relationships with others in our communities and across the globe? • have had more than enough of being defined by what we possess?
• have had more than enough of seeing our planet irrevocably consumed?
• take more than enough ourselves?
This year, OWW, alongside many of its partners, has signed up to support the campaign: http://enoughfoodif.org/.
Local community groups, religious and voluntary organisations, churches, inter-faith groups, environmentalists, youth groups, schools, universities and campaigners as well as local branches of national organisations. People from all faiths and none take part in One World Week to build a just, peaceful and sustainable world.
Local activities are organised by people working together to create events which are accessible and yet challenging to all in their community. Here are events that are either local to me or with which I am involved:
