Buenos Aires, Argentina—A seminar on “Ceremonial and Leadership as Tools for Peace” was held at the November meeting of the Cycle Ambassadors (1).
The seminar, which was held on November 7, 2016 at Magnaverum, an Argentinian company that provides learning solutions, was conducted by Ambassador for Peace and organization logistics and intercultural relations expert Aníbal Gotelli (2).
Mrs. María Teresa Narváez welcomed the guests and introduced the host of the event, Magnaverum founder, Mr. Jorge Cuneo, who then briefly spoke about the organization’s educational platforms for students, families and academic institutions.
Afterwards, Mr. Gotelli presented on the topic of the seminar; he emphasized the importance of knowing rules and culture, practicing respect and kindness and creating balance and harmony for good results to be achieved—from activities or relationships.
Those who attended the seminar brought with them first-aid supplies (e.g., gauzes, bandages, disinfectant) to donate to a local health center.
