SUMMARY:Building New Cycles of Peace: Centering Former Combatants as Agents of Peace
DESCRIPTION:We will explore the unique and powerful roles of youth—including those formerly involved in armed conflicts—in building and sustaining peace. \n\n[Time and Venue]\n\n 	Time: 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. (Pacific Standard Time)\, Wednesday\, 25th February 2026\n\n 	12:00 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.\, 26th February (Japan Standard Time)\n 	8:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. (Pakistan time）\n 	4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. (DRC time)\n 	3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. (UK time)\n\n\n 	Online (Zoom webinar)\n\n[Registration]\nhttps://charterforcompassion.org/what-we-do/support-youth/building-new-cycles-of-peace.html\n[Contents]\nIn recent years\, the role of youth has been increasingly emphasized in international agendas such as the SDGs\, Women\, Peace and Security (WPS)\, and the Youth\, Peace\, and Security (YPS) agenda. However\, while the potential and critical role of young people is being recognized\, youth who have been involved with non-state armed groups—who may be some of the most essential actors in conflict resolution and peacebuilding—are often overlooked and viewed merely as security threats by the international community.\n\nAt this event\, we are honored to have two members of GTY: Mr. Abdul Wahid Sesay\, who was a former combatant of the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) in Sierra Leone\, and Mr. Julien Vikemba\, co-founder and executive director of Sote Pamoja in the Democratic Republic of Congo\, specializing in supporting the rehabilitation\, reconciliation\, and reintegration of former combatants. The discussion will be moderated by Ms. Atma Kaur Narinder\, Social Impact Director.\n\nDrawing on Wahid’s lived experience of involvement with a non-state armed group\, and Vikemba’s expertise as a researcher and practitioner in peacebuilding\, the discussion will highlight the complex challenges faced by former youth combatants toward reintegration\, while also exploring the unique and powerful roles that such youth can play in advancing and sustaining peace.\n\nThis co-hosted event by GTY and CFC aims to shed light on the unique potential of youth combatants with lived experience of armed conflict through a dialogue. By amplifying their voices and fostering genuine dialogue\, we aim to raise awareness of their critical roles in peacebuilding. Listening to their experiences is essential to deepening global discussions on their rights\, as well as on the support needed for their reintegration and empowerment as Agents of Peace.\n\nRegister from here: https://charterforcompassion.org/what-we-do/support-youth/building-new-cycles-of-peace.html

SUMMARY:Roy Zimmerman Concert: Potluck Fundraiser for Peace Camp Houston
DESCRIPTION:What can one person do about climate change\, torture\, racism\, xenophobia\, gun violence\, fracking\, Congressional ineptitude\, ignorance\, war and greed?  Write funny songs\, says Roy Zimmerman\, master satirist\, songwriter\, and performer. \nHPJC is bringing Roy Zimmerman back to Houston in a benefit to raise funds for Peace Camp Houston. Plus there’s an optional pot-luck dinner/social before the concert.\n \n“ReZist” is ninety minutes of Roy Zimmerman’s hilarious\, rhyme-intensive original songs. \n“Sometimes I think satire is the most hopeful and heartfelt form of expression\,” says Roy\, “because in calling out the world’s absurdities and laughing in their face\, I’m affirming the real possibility for change.” \nRoy’s songs have been heard on HBO and Showtime.  He’s shared stages with Bill Maher\, Robin Williams\, Ellen DeGeneres\, John Oliver\, Kate Clinton and George Carlin.  He’s been profiled on NPR’s “All Things Considered\,” and he’s a featured blogger for the Huffington Post. \nHe’s funny\, he’s a great musician\, he’s an excellent performer\, and his in-person performances are outstanding.  What more could you ask for? \nThe concert starts at 7:00 pm\, and there’s also an optional pot luck dinner and social at 6:00 pm — bring some food or drink to share\, if you wish. \nVisit Roy’s web site and check out his music on YouTube for more information about him and his music. If you can’t come\, but would like to help us pay expenses so more children can attend peace camp\, go to the Peace Camp Houston donation form. \nReserve your discount seats now!\nWe’re asking for a contribution of $20 at the door\, or $15 in advance\, but if that’s too much for you\, please let us know. \n\nIf you’d like to purchase tickets with a check\, make it payable to “Houston Peace and Justice Center”\, and indicate “Roy Zimmerman” on the memo line. Please also send us your email so we can add to our updates list! Mail it to HPJC\, PO Box 66234\, Houston TX 77266-6234. Mail early so that we’ll receive the checks at least 2 days before the event.\nBetter still\, reserve/purchase your tickets online\n\nWe’ll also collect additional donations just for this summer’s Peace Camp Houston\, for those who can give more.  We hope to add more weeks of peace camp\, at different locations\, and provide subsidies for more children of lower income families – it all depends on how much funds we can raise. Please give generously!

Groups of children from various organizations and churches in the county are making art pieces with peace as the theme. \nThe art will be displayed in several community locations including the South County\, Mitchell\, and Conroe public libraries\, the Conroe Chamber of Commerce office\, the South County Community Center\, and the South County and Conroe YMCAs. Additionally\, art will be exhibited in the churches and other facilities where children created it including the Oscar Johnson Community Center\, the Congregation Beth Shalom in the Woodlands\, the Al-Ansaar Mosque\, Trinity Episcopal Church\, and Children’s Books on Wheels. \nIf you’re in The Woodlands come see the various exhibits in the churches and schools. \nSee more details about the event and our group (Montgomery County Peace and Justice Network\, a member of HPJC for several years) at our website\, http://www.peacejusticenetwork.org/
