Crosscurrents International

Written by Maji Mazuri Web Team

As the poetry of Rumi says, we need to talk. Nothing happens until people meet each other, listen, share ideas, make friendships. This is Citizen Diplomacy. It seems that Rumi may have been an early “Citizen Diplomat”:

Citizen Diplomacy has been the primary “tool” of CrossCurrents International Institute since its beginning. How can we expect to have peace in this world until people learn to know each other, listen to each other and respect each other?

CrossCurrents International Institute began working with Wanjiku Kironyo and the Maji Mazuri Center in 2000. The primary role of CrossCurrents has been to "network" the activities of Maji Mazuri in USA and to raise funds for the work in Kenya.

Over the years, CrossCurrents has played a key role in the completion of a deep water well, the development of a micro-finance program for small business loans, support for orphan children (Maji Mazuri Children's Home), and an HIV-AIDS education program. In addition, CrossCurrents has played a key role in bringing Rotary International Clubs from western Ohio into this project. These Rotary Clubs are expected to raise approximately $300,000 to the Maji Mazuri Center in 2009 – 2010.

Make a difference in the world. Make a world of difference
Crosscurrents is an ardent supporter of Maji Mazuri. Crosscurrents is a non-profit organization based in Ohio, USA, and serving a national and international constituency. It was started in 1984 as an outgrowth of the international program of the Charles F. Kettering Foundation. It is today completely independent from the Foundation. The mission of CrossCurrents is to build a more peaceful, less violent, world.

Through Citizen Diplomacy, CrossCurrents International Institute seeks to help people in United States have a greater awareness of other countries, cultures, religions and economic systems. Likewise, CrossCurrents seeks to help people in other countries have a better understanding of United States. It is important for people to begin to understand the finite nature of our planet, that we all live together and that we are all neighbors. Indeed, all travel on our small planet is really within our "local neighborhood"Crosscurrents is an ardent supporter of Maji MazuriCrosscurrents is a non-profit organization based in Ohio, USA, and serving a national and international constituency.
