Give Peace A Hand

Date:
22 May 08
Venue:
Central London

This 3-mile-long “human chain handshake” from the Dalai Lama at the Royal Albert Hall to the Chinese Embassy will send a positive global message for meaningful Chinese-Tibetan dialogue before the Olympics. The Metropolitan Police has given it the green light. It’ll be an inspirational moment.
You need to be in central London for at least an hour between around 4.30pm and 7pm on Thursday 22nd May, or even for the whole event. Sign the form on the Avaaz website and use the message field to say if there is someone you want to be near and to indicate the earliest time you can join us.

Zimfest 2008

Date:
30 Aug 08

Every year at Zimfest time, thousands get together to celebrate their love for Zimbabwe. In defiance of losing what it means to be Zimbabwean, every year we make Zimfest bigger and better. This year there’s a kaleidoscopic program of Zimbabwean music, sport, food and culture, headlined by the Godfather of Zimbabwe Music…Oliver Mutukudzi.

It is important to remember that ALL Zimfest proceeds are ploughed back into projects that support the youth of Zimbabwe and victims of the current situation, via WEZIMBABWE, the charity that organises Zimfest.
