"Our work for peace must begin within the private world of each one of us. To search for meaning in a world without fear, we must be without fear. To build aworld of justice, we must be just. And how can we fight for liberty if we are not free in our own minds? How can we ask others to sacrifice if we are not ready to do so?" ----Dag Hammarskjöld 2010 UNCA AWARDS for Excellence in Journalism Save the Date and Send Your Entry |
