* Panel                           30 min (10 min for each panelist)

(This small group interaction is an experiential exercise that we hope can make this program meaningful on a personal level as well as increasing an understanding of and appreciation for nonviolence as a way of life for us as well as our communities and world.) * Closing 10 min

Panelists will share about the Culture of Nonviolence, each from his/her own experience. We hope panel members will share what nonviolence is, that we can choose it (i.e. violence is not inevitable) and thoughts about both personal nonviolence and social nonviolent transformation and how they are connected. And whatever other thoughts you have to add….
