We participated in the Nonviolent Accompaniment dialogue. The networks and connections formed from our participation are still growing. For example, out of that dialogue we were asked to participate in the Women in Peacemaking Project's study of gender which led to WPP asking to see our training materials (which are on our website at www.cpt.org). Now, we are doing some more serious looking at undoing sexism within our organization and I am keeping in mind some of the organizations that I learned about through the dialogue (including WPP) for a time when we might want suggestions and input from other similar organizations. The visibility we gained as an organization was helpful, too. Who knows maybe someone who learned about CPT through New Tactics will become a volunteer with us some day.

Mostly, I was encouraged and inspired to know that all of our work is multiplied again and again through each of our efforts throughout the world. We may just be a few people here in Colombia but when added to those working in Kenya and the Phillipines and Macedonia and the list goes on, we truly are building a movement.
