360 STORIES celebrates human rights day

Arnhem celebrates Human Rights Day

We are

ONE Walburgiskerk Arnhem

We all come from the same belly Our roots are tightly intertwined And when terror threats to divide us We choose to love and unite We embrace our superficial differences Because diversity is life’s breeding ground And we celebrate the numerous similarities By which we are inseparately bound.

We are one.

Exchanging stories connects people to each other. Differences in culture, religion, lifestyle or sometimes even just in age, often lead to misunderstanding, indifference or aversion.

When you share your life stories, and listen to the stories of other people, something wonderful happens. There is recognition, you see the similarities. And the differences, they will be easier to understand.

We cordially invite you to join our 360 Stories event on December 10. We’ll be celebrating this years Humans Rights Day with the people of Arnhem and our guests living in the asylum seekers centre ‘De Koepel’. Location of our celebration is the Walburgiskerk in Arnhem.
