International migration continues to grow on a scale never seen before, bringing with it social and cultural diversity, and inequalities in living standards. At the same time, the world has seen a sharp rise in terrorism, threats of war, populist politics and significant lack of confidence in leadership.

Survey after survey in recent years have pointed to the significant connections between strong academic achievement and arts learning. But can the arts build on its foundation of “universal language” and actually bring cultures closer together?

Professor Ada Aharoni, who lives in Israel and is the founding President of the International Forum for the Literature and Culture of Peace (IFLAC), believes that education has a critical role to play in the peace process. Intercultural communication, peace literature and a peace media can substantially help in healing the urgent ailments of our global village. However, Aharoni notes, “Peace and tolerance education should be given to the teachers and the parents too. If a child goes back home after class to parents that are intolerant and violent, the child, despite his peace and tolerance education at school, will be forcefully influenced by the values, customs and traditions of his parents.” Today’s youth are living in a globalized world, and a true global citizen according to Aharoni is, “a human guardian of all the people in our global village, and not only of the country she or he lives in.”

Professor Ada Aharoni received the President Shimon Peres Award for Peace in 2012 for her peace research, her books and her work with IFLAC. She was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize 2014.

Hemp, Inc. Announces Prominent Media Coverage of Recent Bull Run by Insider Financial

SPRING HOPE, NC, Jan. 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hemp, Inc. (OTC PINK: HEMP), a global leader in the industrial hemp industry with the largest hemp mill in the western hemisphere, announced today that Insider Financial covered the Company’s recent market growth in the month of December 2017 -- taking note of the Company’s five-pillar infrastructure in a Jan. 5 article titled, Hemp, Inc. (OTCMKTS:HEMP) Is Now At The Recovery Stage.

The Insider Financial article states that Hemp, Inc. “... has been enjoying a bull run over the past month,” noting that the Company closed out December 2017 with a 150 percent increase in share price from the beginning of the same month. Highlighting the Company’s revamped website, the article recognizes the Company’s strides toward enhancing communication with the public and its shareholders. Hemp, Inc. currently posts its financial disclosures on its website instead of on OTC markets as done previously.

“We take every opportunity possible to inform the public and our shareholders about the most up-to-date happenings at Hemp, Inc.,” said Hemp, Inc. CEO Bruce Perlowin. “This article recognizes the effort we have put forth to have our hemp mill become operational and to build out our five-pillar infrastructure, which is crucial to our mission to support hemp farmers nationwide.”

The article concludes, “HEMP is working hard at ensuring they succeed. This has paid off quite well for them. We expect that they will keep growing into the future thus remain bullish about them.”
