Participate in Feb. 24 photo shoot to tell the world how you foster peace building<\/h3>\n

\"Jenna\"<\/a>Join the Nobel Peace Prize Forum<\/a>\u00a0#peaceitforward campaign to tell the world how you build peace.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll become part of an international video and social media campaign in partnership with the internationally renowned\u00a0Robert Fogarty of DearWorld.me<\/a>,\u00a0a portrait project that unites people through pictures, to raise awareness and grow involvement in peacemaking. In addition the video will be shown to an international audience at the Nobel Peace Prize Forum being held from March 6-8 in Minneapolis.<\/p>\n

To become part of the campaign, simply stop by Augsburg College to have your photo taken. Be ready to answer the question of how you build peace and how you make a difference. Maybe you serve meals to the hungry, mentor children or serve on a nonprofit community board. Perhaps you work as part of a restorative justice program, are in a Rotary group that conducts projects across the globe, or help out an elderly neighbor.\u00a0Peace building takes on many forms, small and large, and we want to capture what you do that makes a difference in your community, your state, our world.<\/p>\n

A photographer will take a professional-quality, digital photo and a photo with your cell phone that you can post to social media. It\u2019s your chance to tell the world why peace matters.<\/p>\n

Who:\u00a0Public<\/p>\n

When:\u00a010 a.m.-7 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 24<\/p>\n

Where:\u00a0Augsburg College\u2019s Oren Gateway Center<\/a>\u00a0lobby, 610 22nd Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN 55454<\/p>\n
