Dear Friends,

We are busy this month at the Gandhi Institute prepping for the annual celebration of the Season for Nonviolence, January 30-April 4.

We are thrilled to have the support of a major media campaign by the Ad Council for the Season this year, and the support of 15 local groups involved with planning the Season since last summer.

Highlights of this newsletter include:

  • Meet the Gandhi Fellows
  • River Keepers in Action
  • Highlights from the 2011 M.K. Gandhi Fall Intensive
  • Interview with Professor Dena Swanson of the Warner School
  • Upcoming Events
