In Their Shoes
Mace, Jane
Adults Learning, v20 n10 p32-34 Jun 2009
"Protective presence," "advocacy" and "solidarity" are the three key elements in the work of ecumenical accompaniment. In this article, the author focuses on the third, "solidarity," and explores what it has to do with undertaking and promoting adult learning. The author shares her experience when she traveled to Palestine to take part in a church programme called the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI), run by the World Council of Churches, to monitor human rights abuses and support peace efforts in the region. Nearing the end of her three-month stay, she reflects on the role adult learning can play in increasing understanding and promoting justice. (Contains 4 resources and 7 online resources.)
