edit Title
Three Dot Dash -- a We Are Family Foundation global initiative
edit Description
Excerpted from the website description:
- Three Dot Dash is a global initiative of the We Are Family Foundation designed to recognize and support the efforts of teen leaders around the world who are actively focused on projects that promote a more peaceful society by addressing issues related to basic human needs: food, water, health, shelter, safety and education. Inspired by the late 13-year-old poet and peacemaker, Mattie J.T. Stepanek, Three Dot Dash is an innovative year-round leadership and mentoring program that teaches teen leaders how to “tell their stories” effectively using various forms of media, current technology and distribution methods to accelerate their leadership potential, advance their projects and mobilize peers and broader audiences around the world to action. The name Three Dot Dash is a mash-up of the old-school international language of Morse code, used by telegraphs, and the two-fingered “V” gesture that has come to be known as the peace sign. In Morse code, “V’ is …-. It expresses the intent of a new generation of leaders to achieve victory for peace, and to transmit a worldwide “peace buzz.”
