Call for Submissions: War & Dialogue


Launching November 1, 2006
"When I think of how best to define my generation, these days one thing comes to mind: war." - Lisa Ling, Journalist

Let us take you beyond the headlines and show you how war is affecting the lives of young women around the world-both in conflict zones and outside them. As a result of recent fighting, millions of people are living in diaspora, migration is the trademark of this generation. What is it like to start a new life in a new place?

We are all touched by war in some way, whether you are living in a conflict zone or have never personally experienced war. We are interested in hearing your experiences. What are your thoughts on stereotypes of certain religious and ethnic groups, and how do you think we can tackle these issues? What are the positive contributions young women are making towards resolving wars- both in their own countries and globally? The media doesn't tell us all the stories, especially once the world has moved on to the next hotspot. Tell us yours.

Submit your work to the Imagining Ourselves exhibit.
