This session gave Jack Corley, President of the Family’Federation for World Peace and Unification Europe, and Marcela Rozehnalova as well as Lubica Magnusson the opportunity to offer presentations based on using effective tools for character building and education.

While Jack Corley highlighted the importance of family in character education, Marcela Rozehnalova emphasised that each and every person is unique as a character. Lubica Magnusson spoke about the need for character education in her country, they are educating teachers based on a program called ‘Free Teens’ in connection with AIDS prevention, so the message can be effectively taught in the schools.There was great interest in the program.

After an interactive discussion, where the audience was invited to ask questions and comment on the speaker’s presentation, the final session of the day dealt with WFWPI’s future plans and goals.
