Humanism Now | Empowering Conversations with Voices for Reason, Compassion and Change 15. Scott Jacobsen on the Importance of Journalism plus Navigating Global Conflicts with Humanistic Values
"Peace is more than just the absence of war. Peace requires respect for the worth and dignity of our fellow human beings, tolerance among individuals, and harmony within each person." Humanist International's Oslo Declaration on Peace
This week, AJ and Mark tackle Humanist perspectives on global conflicts such as the current Israel-Palestine crisis and the role of religion in exacerbating or potentially resolving this deep-seated conflict.
Our interview with journalist Scott Jacobson, whose boots on the ground in Ukraine bring a raw, provided an evidence-based angle to our discourse and demonstrates the critical role of informed journalism in shaping societal discourse.
Join us on this exploration, amplify the conversation, and help shape a more humane approach to the global stage.
