PeaceScapes: Sharing Stories of Hope and Harmony




In a world that is constantly bombarded with violence, hatred and conflicts, it is important to have a space where peace and harmony can thrive. Such a space can act as a ray of hope for those who are seeking a better future for themselves and for the world. After much thought and consideration, PeaceScapes aims to promote peace and inspire people to work towards it.

The name PeaceScapes has a beautiful and intriguing ring to it. It immediately catches the attention and sparks curiosity. The word ‘peace’ is powerful on its own. It is a word that holds immense significance and meaning for people from all walks of life. It represents a universal desire for a world free from conflicts, violence, and suffering. The addition of the word ‘scapes’ makes the name more dynamic and inviting. It creates a visual image of landscapes and sceneries that are serene, harmonious, and tranquil. This imagery perfectly encapsulates the essence of peace.

Moreover, the name PeaceScapes is multifaceted and open to interpretation. It has the potential to appeal to a wide range of audiences. It can be interpreted as ‘creating peace in our landscapes’, ‘exploring different cultures and traditions that promote peace’, ‘escape to a peaceful state of mind’, and much more. This allows for flexibility in the content of the newsletter and makes it more relatable to a diverse group of people.

Additionally, PeaceScapes has a positive connotation. It focuses on the solutions rather than the problems. In a world where the media is constantly highlighting the negative aspects of society, the name itself brings a sense of optimism and hope. It reminds us that amidst all the chaos and turmoil, there are still stories of peace and harmony that need to be shared and celebrated.

The name PeaceScapes also aligns with the purpose and theme and reflects the concept of creating a space where peaceful ideas, stories, and initiatives can thrive. The newsletter can feature a variety of content such as personal narratives, interviews, inspiring quotes, and news related to peace and harmony across the globe. This will allow readers to connect with different peace initiatives and gain a better understanding of the importance of promoting peace in their own lives and in the world.

Experiencing the Country's Best Coffee – A Review of the Library Coffee + Study

  Algazelus 06.27.23 The latest addition to the list of famed coffee shops in the city of Zamboanga is no other than the Library Coffee + Study . This particular coffee shop is remarkable for providing both coffee and study services. On one end, they have separate rooms perfect for group study, and on the other, an array of ample space for individuals who prefer some peace and quiet while they study. Recently, I visited the Library Coffee + Study to have a sip of their specialty coffee and learn more about the character of this place. Prior to my visit, however, I was told that they serve an array of coffees ranging from iced cappuccino to hot Americano. My thirst for hot Americano, however, was long overdue and I was eager to take a seat and dig in. I have tasted several americanos in a range of coffee shops, if I may add, and this particular experience promised to bruise my expectations. It turns out, the barista who served me informed me that they use imported arabica coffee bea...

  "Finally, after all these years of experience working in the field of humanitarianism and peacebuilding, and creating a space for duty bearers to participate in crafting community-based approaches to strengthening peace, security and promoting social cohesion, these are some of the fruits to harvest. This opportunity offered by Watsons is incredible. I am more passionate and have the courage to do more." I am thrilled to announce that I have been selected for the 2024 Western Union Foundation Fellowship, thanks to the efforts of the Watson Institute ! The application process was a mix of excitement and struggle. I had doubts about being accepted and shortlisted. Even during the final interview, although I felt some relief, I still had lingering doubts about my chances, especially considering I was competing with applicants from all over the world. Just give a brief background: Out of 2900 applications from around the world, only 30 people were selected for this cohort, r...

BATTLE OF JOLO: WHAT HAPPENED LAST FEBRUARY 7, 1974

BATTLE OF JOLO - FEBRUARY 7, 1974: OUR NARRATIVE Algazelus This is our narrative. February 7, 1974, is a date that is etched in the minds of every Tausug, including myself, as a crucial turning point in our history. It marks the day when the town of Jolo, in Sulu, was burned down by government forces as part of their fight against the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF). As a Tausug from Sulu, this event is not just a distant memory but a reality that still haunts us today. Despite being born years after the burning of Jolo, I have grown up listening to stories of the event from my elders and reading about it in history books. But it wasn’t until I reached adulthood that I fully understood the significance and impact of what happened on that fateful day. The burning of Jolo, also known as the siege of Jolo, was a military confrontation between the MNLF and the government of the Philippines. The MNLF, led by Nur Misuari, was fighting for the self-determination of the Bangsamoro people...
