Agent of change in the square and our words really needs change. The women from the Organization Religions for peace are meeting in the jordanian capital amman to formulate a feminist message for the World Assembly taking place in lindau germany. Here in jordan they pay a visit to a selfhelp project for women although their guide gives them a few last minute instructions have your passports ready in case the bus is stopped at a checkpoint be discreet dont draw attention to yourself. With a boarding or leave because theyre gathering is on the stairs and. Theyre on their way to zaka a city in northern jordan. After turning onto a side street they reach their destination. Zaka is a 4 city one in 3 residents here is a refugee palestinian iraqi or syrian. A Finnish Church organization has set up a selfhelp project in the basement of this building its aim is to help women find ways to earn their own money. Each year around 400. 00 women apply for one of the coveted places offered here but only 70 can be accommodated. And the project doesnt only offer opportunities to jordanian women Syrian Refugees are welcome to. These are women in solidarity between jordanian and city and women and they are backing each others offering them their part to nikki to work. Toward a rented house and to educate the children. My hats here. Mights and her colleagues listen closely they know that an independent income is the 1st step towards selfdetermination for these women. In the end i would like to become a professional Makeup Artist at an International Level though they dont actually know we all have dreams and it is my dream to work with disabled people only the really years of us one has said love but i dont feel like a foreigner here. On a high but what i would like to educate myself wonderful will probably. Be that if the women get to know each other over a meal. Social status is irrelevant here. Religious differences to. The right they quickly find Common Ground. We could share experience and learn from each other they are doing an amazing job they add the whole they are fantastically the i love them very much. The women from religions for peace are treated like celebrities. But 9 little bada insists that all the women here are heroes. It is. So inspiring to talk so that someone out of nothing made something some other women have really lived an out of to go months and out of sight of the situations understand they are able to make something positive out of their lives. Who. Was not. After one of the women sings a moving song for the group samir is inspired to join in. If it was. Back in amman. Getting a job and earning money is only the 1st step for women. The campaigners from religions for peace want more and they know how to assert themselves. Who dont know know is jewish but shes been appointed ambassador to the us by bahrain where islam is the state religion. May have to be the mighty became the 1st Deputy Speaker of tunisia constituent assembly. And. Who during iraqs saddam era was tortured and imprisoned for 10 years is now a member of the new iraqi parliament. A school. This actually affected me so much make me more stronger more. Like a kid give me more sit tight and thank faith coleman give me more sit to my supplies before to fall in the future. These women dont want to sit on the sidelines they want to place at the negotiating table over 100 countries are represented in the ngo religions for peace their delegates engage in mediating conflicts throughout the world. May have to be the knights is one of them and she is absolutely convinced that women can do this job better than men and i think that they are bet their way of negotiating is better than that of women because you know to be successful. Is to take all what he asked for and to give nothing. This is not negotiation this is a power this is imposing its way on to get one of the other. While still in amman the women receive german support for their feminist agenda the german ambassador to get to. Pays them a visit the atmosphere is relaxed so they all share a basic point of view. These ladies from not believe that yes its true i think that women are more oriented towards solving a problem and men. Are beginning to look at that im to do that. And i think sometimes you say to them because something you want to be like we say you have. Done so we just need to do the lets get it done this time the base you have even and really just many jokes. And we have told by religious people. And jewish rabbi we know what. Got lost in the desert for 40 years so i dont know why they did it it was a different and yet we have this interview is one that i think it should get. You to think. That. Theres an irony in the fact that these women are drawing up their feminist agenda in amman. Jordan is a Patriarchal Society and the man is the head of the family. Nevertheless in the oppressive heat of amman they put together their proposals. To each. Of. The 50. 2 weeks later. Unlike constance. No sun or heat here just dampening rain. This. Town in southern germany was chosen to host the 10th International Assembly of religions for peace. And. More than 900 delegates from over 100 countries all interested in discussing ideas for achieving peace there are representatives of dozens of religions. That are. Saying. Today. That we are all sisters and that there is a divine to come take out there for and for peace for one and for action to put our faith into. What we have to achieve and what we wish to achieve is the peace. That we can. We need to really. See the coos and middle east on been achieved in iraq. While discussions are already underway inside german president. Unveils a monument to commemorate this World Assembly in lindau. Could trigger. The assembly was sponsored by the German Government and the foreign ministry. Divided organizational systems president steinmeyer sums up the assemblies ams the phone name and religion should promote peace and in places where there is conflict it can be used with the help of its representatives to try to resolve those conflicts but. Conflict solution to the delegates gather in the great hall for the opening ceremony. May have to let b. D. Might be seated in the 2nd row the other women are somewhere behind her life for instance who will soon have her chance to deliver her feminist message. The leaders of germanys 2 main christian denominations open the proceedings. Let us as global religious communities be strong forces towards a global reach taishan of civilization and towards the political changes which are equally necessary racist and hate and greet. No natural human condition they can be overcome then the delegates get down to work. Through that in a few minutes and this comic. It will be. All the muslim representatives will have an opportunity to Exchange Ideas here. And this. Is. Surprisingly perhaps the common language of the International Muslim community is anguish but the quran verse is recited in classical arabic. And. Wont. Be in the homes you know you know him being one will mean the home. In the discussion that follows gender equality is hardly mentioned at all and in the end. Is less of a discussion leader than somebody whose job it is to introduce speakers. So. This is nevertheless she has a prominent seat on the stage despite being openly feminist. And many things we need to start with them symbolically symbolically the pictured at sally for the the image itself is very important for people it does not women being on the side not women being behind and not one woman being. Booked a photo away from men know sitting together on the same mom and moderating together this is a very important symbolic of. The power of symbols is noticeable everywhere. The following day too when nearly 1000 delegates walk the streets together. They form a long procession through the small berrien town an unusual sight in these parts. Again woman from the United Kingdom spontaneously requests a social media interview with some urine luka. Its not a problem for the christian from egypt. The delegates congregate on a lawn beside the lake a rather unusual religious service is planned and the residents of lindau are welcome to attend. And im. Not familiar with it other than. They form a circle and chant together. Lulu. The your uncle. And. Now finally the women from the middle east come to the forefront even mahathir is excited although shes a seasoned public speaker. Course that im excited because that we are going to at the same time have our individual voices but would be a collective vice of women oh no women and we have to come and say. Some era look which is her main a colleagues good luck. Maina is an acronym for middle east and north africa. The event is chaired by bishop a try but. She is the only woman on the stage to hold an official church post the others are laypeople. Their research is showing that the stability and prosperity of a society and that obviously includes the peace for as a society also depending on the way women involved and represented in public life and in public responsibilities. Just outside the door just an inmate and Jacqueline Laurie are getting ready to report on the event. They are here to provide content for social media. Having arrived a little late they are hesitant to burst in at the last minute. But the reporters have their work to do. They belong to the religion for peace section. They attended a course at the d w academy and now the students will post reports on instagram and facebook. The fiery rhetoric coming from the stage is unfamiliar to the 2 Young Students from asia. My message. Or. Assembly for a woman in a specific. Riots are taken. Not given. This is very important when we have to empower each other and to empower all of the Society Women in religions and not just followers they can interpret and explain the text of their religion and they can criticize. Some religious to say visions and to choose that are not to just to them because god in all religions and let me start by my religion hes addressing ass as he is addressing the man sitting in the front row is secretary general of religions for peace william f. Bentley. He is supportive of the women i hope you dont like that i had to put on the stage to. Thank. The king. The secretary general congratulates them personally. Im so thrilled by this panel this panel is the most help for me and encouraging experience that i have had in any assembly this is the voice of our common future. The appeal to demand ones rights rather than wait for them to be given goes down well with the women in the audience it was really inspiring to see the power of women in this venue and how its not just about asking for rights anymore its about these are rights and this is what were going to to do to make sure that theyre guaranteed. The 2 budding journalists are also enthusiastic about the feminist views being promoted here. This is really great you guys especially as women in indonesia asia its really its really becoming almost the most important thing for me to promote like women empowerment. You this is the you society so its really great its really inspiring and its really mind blowing to say stuff like. Jacqueline records a video of the event this doesnt require much equipment the young medical student uses her smartphone. From the beginning of this thing until now the quick actually doing the way im actually having an. And on that i got so many things from this experience and also from the people that we can do. Before she upload her video online she shows it to her trainer. The assembly was an excellent opportunity for the young women to learn about social media reporting. That evening the residents of lindau invite the Assembly Participants to a celebration on the Market Square the people of lindau have prepared all the food themselves. It was organized by and this chairperson of the local Lutheran Church council. Her motivation. Cries im proud that so many different religions are meeting here in my own family we have muslims buddhists all the doctors christians protestants and catholics this is all very natural to me and.

This is hospitality and the front of the church want to have a somebody. And most importantly it encourages interaction across every imaginable boundary samir luka is deep in conversation with the lindo local. There. I think the big issues. Does mention to some people free media coming together to talk about peace is more important than just about anything so long as people are talking they will raise their fists. On the last day of the assembly theres a surprise in store william f. Bentley has announced his intention to retire as secretary general. In his Farewell Speech he makes it clear that his enthusiasm for the feminist message delivered by the women from the middle east was deeply felt. The new secretary general is a woman. From egypt. We love you and were going to be with you. Which are. The coalition of religions for peace is 50 years old. But this is the 1st time a woman has taken the helm. I think the issue of women to be would recognize. Itself on this stage and who did that the woman its not its not that i give to giving. Someone shes struggling for it and she says this thats the satisfaction for me but i will be fully satisfied away from. With past acts i always striving for the more. Im satisfied with what we have now but thats not to stop that to continue down that this was more hall. Time. That i talk about making woman in the frontline. Finally for women are invited up on the stage in the front row where they belong on equal footing with men. The funny. Thing is.
