Dear Theatre Without Borders Colleague,

Mediators Beyond Borders International is leading a global movement, and we'd love for you to be a part of it. The 2020 Decade of Peace Initiative invites individuals and organizations from around the world to join forces in advancing U.N. Sustainable Development Goal 16: Peace, Justice, and Inclusive Societies. This initiative will focus on building capacity to scale the impact of programs designed to equip local communities around the world with mediation and conflict-transformation skills.

Three Ways You Can Become a Founding Member of the 2020 Decade of Peace Initiative Today:

1. Attend the 2019 International Congress.
   “Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.” -Warren Bennis
   At this groundbreaking leadership conference, you will work together with global leaders, pioneers, and change makers to cast a global vision, and craft a local strategy, to harness the power of mediation and conflict transformation and lead positive socio-economic change over the next decade. We invite you to play an active role in launching this global initiative by attending the Congress in Bali, Indonesia, November 6-8.
   Register for the 2019 International Congress Today. Prices go up September 15!
    
2. Sponsor a Peacebuilder to Attend Congress
   “Great leaders empower new leaders to make the world a better place.” - Maxine Driscoll
   For many local peace-builders, the average person's discretionary income is a few hundred dollars a month. That being the case, the Congress registration fee alone is cost-prohibitive. But peacebuilders around the world have expressed significant interest in this event. We invite you to invest in these change-makers by sponsoring them to attend. Keep in mind this is a particularly good way to "Pay It Forward", if you are personally unable to participate, and we will give you special recognition as a “Peace Sponsor” at the Congress.
   Sponsor a Peacebuilder to Attend.
    
3. Invest in the 2020 Decade of Peace Initiative
   “The future depends on what we do in the present.” -Mahatma Gandhi
   The 2020 Decade of Peace Initiative is a movement to scale the impact of MBBI programs to equip local communities around the world with peace-building and conflict transformation skills. When you invest in the 2020 Decade of Peace Initiative,  you invest in the long-term growth and sustainability of our core capacity-building programs. We will, in turn, spotlight your organization and work, as a partner in this global initiative.
   Invest in the 2020 Decade of Peace Initiative.
