Peacebuilding Media & Social Change Storytelling
Photography by Adrian Kawaley-Lathan
About
My name is Adrian and I believe peace is possible.
I believe we can consciously evolve our behaviours, intentionally create nonviolent societies and responsibly nurture healthy living systems.
My personal approach to peacebuilding utilises media, performing arts and embodied practice to build community, educate, communicate change and empower sustainable global transformation.
