FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The “One Home Journey 2024-2030 – 7 Years for 7 Generations”

One Home Journey started in Zimbabwe

The call of our time is to put the house in order!

At home within ourselves, at home in our community, at home on earth: Awareness and inspiration for an intact home, ideas on how the home can be a healthy living space for all, this is what the OneHomeJourney creates, which Rama Mani and Alexander Schieffer started with a peace march in Geneva on 21st  September 2024, the International Peace Day. On 22nd  September, they were welcomed by indigenous leaders, earth artists and peacemakers at the Credo Mutwa Cultural Village (Khwakaya Lendaba Cultural Village) in Soweto, South Africa. One of the messages given by the Elders was: Connect! Connect! – Connect with each other and with the world around you.

In Zimbabwe, the first Earthweek began on 23 September as part of the One Home Journey – a seven-year tour to ‘Homes for Humanity’ in every country in the world. At the Catholic University in Zimbabwe, Rama and Alexander laid the foundation for a Unity Park by planting trees. In the ‘Integral Kumusha’ initiative, a community that lives and works according to the African philosophy of Ubuntu, principles and solutions for a peaceful and regenerative future for seven generations were explored.

The next stops on the One Home Journey are Lesotho, Südafrika, Rwanda, DR Congo, Uganda and Kenya. The question guiding the One Home Journey: How can we transform our divided world into a united home for the indivisible family of all life on Earth? Earth Citizens are putting action behind the words of the UN 2030 Agenda, in which all our governments have pledged to ‘transform the world’… ‘by 2030’… to ‘a world free from poverty, hunger, disease and want, where all life can flourish’. In each country, Homes for Humanity (which can be families, associations, businesses, schools or universities, arts groups, co-operatives or public institutions) are the ‘incubators for social, economic, environmental and cultural renewal’.

The journey is also conceived as an UnivEARTHsity ) of collective wisdom and benevolence to reach a critical mass of transformative local initiatives on a planetary scale. As a non-academic university that is co-built on the go, it is freely open to all citizens of the planet, regardless of age, background or qualification. At the end of each week, people around the world can participate online in the local EarthAgora.
