Recent Book Talk in Toronto
I had a wonderful experience recently in Toronto. This is a photo of my book talk at Indigo Books, where I spoke on my recently published To Make the Earth Whole: the Art of Citizen Diplomacy.

Beyond the Walls of Hatred: Initiatives of Change Conference on Human Security
