Ubandakanyeke njani kwi-anti-war activism kwaye World BEYOND War (WBW)?

Njengomodareyitha wemidiya yoluntu yeqela likaFacebook Abantu Bakha Uxolo, ndiye ndazi malunga World BEYOND War okoko bendivelisa uthotho lokuposa lwe#FindAFriendFriday, olujolise ekwabelaneni ngothungelwano lwehlabathi lokwakha uxolo noluntu lukaFacebook. Njengoko ndandikhangela izixhobo, ndandisongelwe ngokupheleleyo ngumsebenzi weWBW.

Emva kwexesha, ndathatha inxaxheba kwiNkomfa yoXolo lweHlabathi yeeyure ezingama-24 “Silungisa Ikamva Elikwabelwana Ngalo Kunye” neqela lam likaFacebook, apho sabamba iseshoni esekwe kwizakhono ze-90 enesihloko esithi “Fumana Amandla Akho Okwakha Uxolo”. Ngethamsanqa, kwakuloo nkomfa nje ndadibana noGqr. Phill Gittins, uMlawuli wezeMfundo we-WBW.

Ukusukela ngoko, ukusebenzelana kwam ne-WBW kwakhuthazwa yintsebenziswano noGqr. Phill Gittins kwezinye iinkqubo, ezifana ne-International Youth Day Webinar kwi-Human Rights Education Associates (HREA) apho ndandisebenza njengomfundi oqeqeshwayo. Ngenkolelo ekwabelwana ngayo kwimfundo njengendlela esebenzayo yokwakha uxolo oluzinzileyo kunye nobulungisa bentlalontle, ndikhuthazwa kakhulu ukuba ndijoyine iinzame zeWBW zokwenza igalelo kwiinzame zokulwa nemfazwe / zoxolo emhlabeni jikelele.

Ziziphi iintlobo zemisebenzi yokuzithandela onceda ngazo?

I-internship yam e-WBW iquka uluhlu lwemisebenzi yamavolontiya, egxile kwi Inkqubo yeMfundo yoXolo kunye neNtshukumo yeMpembelelo (PEAFI).. Enye yeendima zam kwiqela unxibelelwano kunye nokufikelela kwimidiya yoluntu, ukuthatha inxaxheba ekuphuhliseni izicwangciso zeendaba zoluntu zeprogram ye-PEAFI kunye nezinye iiprojekthi ezinokuthi zibe khona zokufundisa uxolo kwi-WBW. Okwangoku, ndixhasa i ukubeka iliso novavanyo (M&E) yenkqubo yePEAFI, ukuncedisa ekuphuhliseni isicwangciso se-M&E, ukuqokelelwa kwedatha kunye nohlalutyo, kunye nokulungiselela ingxelo ye-M&E. Kwakhona, ndilivolontiya kwiqela leziganeko, ndisebenza noogxa bethu ukuhlaziya Iphepha leKhalenda yeziganeko zeWBW rhoqo.

Ingcebiso yakho ephezulu kumntu ofuna ukubandakanyeka neWBW?

Yenza nje kwaye uya kuba yinxalenye yotshintsho wonke umntu afuna ukulibona. Yintoni emangalisayo nge-WBW kukuba zombini yeyabalweli bemfazwe abanamava kunye nomntu omtsha kule ntsimi njengam. Into oyifunayo kukubona ingxaki ekuphazamisayo kwaye ube nemvakalelo yokuba ufuna ukwenza into ukuyitshintsha. Nantsi indawo onokufumana kuyo amandla, inkuthazo, kunye nezixhobo.

Ingcebiso esebenzayo ngakumbi iya kuba kukuqala uhambo lwakho ekuthetheleleni uxolo ngokuthatha a imfundo yoxolo kwi-intanethi kwa-WBW, enokukunceda wakhe isiseko solwazi kunye namandla ahambelanayo nokuba ukuthanda kwakho okanye uphuhliso lwakho lobuchwephesha kwicandelo lomsebenzi wotshintsho lwentlalo.

Ngowuphi umbono ovela e-China nase-US kukunika idemoni yase-China ekhulayo kurhulumente wase-US kunye nemithombo yeendaba?

Ngokwenene lo ngumbuzo ondiphazamisayo ixesha elide kwaye kufuneka ndijijisane nawo phantse yonke imihla ebomini bam. Kubonakala kunzima kakhulu ukuba kwindawo ethile phakathi, kunye noxinzelelo oluqhubekayo phakathi kweTshayina ne-US, la mazwe mabini abaluleke kakhulu kum. Ababaninzi abantu abakhululekileyo kwimpembelelo yentiyo ehlala ixhaphakile. Kwelinye icala, isigqibo sam sokufunda e-US siye sathandabuzeka kakhulu ngabantu belizwe lam, njengoko bethandabuza yonke enye into enxulumene nolo tshaba. Kodwa ngethamsanqa, ndixhaswa yintsapho yam nakubahlobo bam abasenyongweni. Kwelinye icala, njengomfundi weMfundo yamaLungelo oLuntu e-US, kukuthuthumbisa ukubona ukuhlaselwa kwamalungelo oluntu eTshayina, kokubini kumajelo eendaba ase-US nakwizifundo zezifundo. Kodwa ngethamsanqa, kwangaxeshanye, ndingafumana ithemba kwiingxelo ezikhulayo ezichaseneyo kwisikolo sam nangaphaya.

Ngamaxesha amaninzi, sibonakala siqhele ukugxeka ii-ajenda zezopolitiko ngayo yonke into. Nangona kunjalo, kusenokufuneka siphelise intsomi ngokwethu yokuba “impahla”, inkcazo yokuba singoobani na, kufuneka isekelwe “kolunye”, indlela esizibona ngayo ukuba singoobani na. Enyanisweni, ukuthand’ izwe okusempilweni kungaphezulu nje kokuba neqhayiya ngobumfama ngobunjalo bethu. Kufuneka kubekho uhlengahlengiso olubalulekileyo oluyanyaniswa nothando lwelizwe lomama, olwahlula ukuthand’ izwe olwakhayo olukhuthaza umanyano, kubuzwe obutshabalalisayo obukhuthaza ucalucalulo.

Njengoko ndibhala ikharityhulam yoxolo kwiimeko emva kongquzulwano, ngokugxininisa kumalungelo oluntu kunye nokusebenza kolutsha, bendicinga malunga nendlela yokuzoba unxibelelwano phakathi koxolo kunye ne-activism, ezi ngcamango zimbini zikhangeleka ziphikisana kwiitoni. Ngoku, ndicingela ukongezwa okubalulekileyo kokuthand' izwe, ndingathanda ukwabelana ngesicatshulwa kwizicwangciso zezifundo zam ukuqukumbela impendulo-uxolo alukho malunga "yonke into ilungile", kodwa ngaphezulu kwelizwi elisuka entliziyweni yakho elithi "andiyinyani. Kulungile ngayo. " Xa uninzi lungelunganga nento eyiyo, ayisayi kuba kude nobulungisa-umkhenkce. Xa uninzi lungasazoli, sisendleleni eya eluxolweni.

Yintoni egcina ukuba uphefumlele ukuxhasa utshintsho?

Ukufunda, ukunxibelelana, kunye nokuthatha amanyathelo. Ezi zizinto ezintathu eziphezulu ezihlala zindikhuthaza ukuba ndithethelele utshintsho.

Okokuqala, njengomfundi ophumelele isidanga, ndinomdla kakhulu malunga nokugxila kwam kwimfundo yoxolo kwaye ndizimisele ukuthatha eli thuba lokuvolontiya ukukhulisa ukuqonda kwam nokucinga ngoxolo oluzinzileyo, unxibelelwano lwenkcubeko kunye nophuhliso lwamazwe ngamazwe.

Njengekholwa kumajelo eendaba ezentlalo kunye nonxibelelwano, kwelinye icala, ndikhuthazeke kakhulu ukuba ndibandakanyeke noluntu olubanzi lokwakha uxolo, olufana nenethiwekhi yeWBW. Unxibelelwano nabantu abanengqondo efanayo, njengabakhi boxolo abancinci kwinkqubo ye-PEAFI, luhlala lundenza ndihlaziye kwaye ndivuseleleke ukuba ndibe nombono weenguqu ezilungileyo.

Ekugqibeleni, ndikholelwa kakhulu ukuba uxolo kunye nemfundo yamalungelo oluntu kufuneka ijoliswe "kwiintliziyo, iintloko kunye nezandla", ezingabandakanyi nje ukufunda ngolwazi, imilinganiselo kunye nezakhono, kodwa okona kubaluleke kakhulu, kukhokelela kwizenzo zokutshintsha kwentlalo. Ngale ndlela, ndiyathemba ukuqala “kubutshantliziyo obuncinci” ngumntu wonke emhlabeni, esihlala singayijongi singaqondanga, ukanti yakha kakhulu kwiinguqu ezibanzi nezinzulu ezisingqongileyo sonke.

Ngaba ubhubhane we-coronavirus ikuchaphazele njani ukusebenza kwakho?

Ngapha koko, amava am obutshantliziyo asanda kuqala phakathi kobhubhani we-COVID-19. Ndiqale izifundo zam zeemasters kwiYunivesithi yaseColumbia ngokuthatha izifundo phantse. Ngaphandle kwemiceli mngeni emikhulu yamaxesha okuvalelwa, ndifumene amandla amaninzi aqinisekileyo kumava awodwa okuhambisa ubomi kwi-Intanethi. Ndikhokelwe yikhosi yoxolo kunye namalungelo oluntu kunye nesifundo sophando sikanjingalwazi malunga nokutshatyalaliswa kolutsha, ndiye ndatshintsha ugxininiso lwam kwiMfundo yoXolo kunye neLungelo loLuntu, nto leyo endinika umbono omtsha ngemfundo. Okwesihlandlo sokuqala, ndiye ndazi ukuba imfundo inokuba nempembelelo kwaye iguqule, endaweni yokuphindaphinda inkqubo yolawulo lwentlalo njengoko bendidla ngokuyibona.

Ngeli xesha, ubhubhani we-COVID-19 wenze umhlaba wancinci, kungekuphela nje ngengqiqo yokuba sonke sibotshelelwe kunye yile ngxaki ingazange ibonwe ngaphambili, kodwa nanjengoko isibonisa iitoni zamathuba okuba abantu banokunxibelelana njani nabanye. iinjongo ezifanayo zoxolo kunye neenguqu ezilungileyo. Ndizibandakanye nonxibelelwano oluninzi loxolo, kubandakanywa nokuba ngumnxibelelanisi wabafundi weNethiwekhi yeMfundo yoXolo kwikholeji yam. Ekuqaleni kwesiqingatha sonyaka, siququzelele umsitho, simema amalungu kunye noontanga esikolweni ukuba babe nencoko malunga "noluphi utshintsho ofuna ukulwenza kwihlabathi lasemva kobhubhane". Kwiveki nje enye okanye kunjalo, seva ngeempendulo zevidiyo zabantu kuzo zonke iindawo zehlabathi, besabelana ngamava ahlukeneyo kunye neenkxalabo ngexesha lo bhubhani kunye nombono okwabelwana ngawo wekamva elikhethiweyo.

Kukwafanelekile ukukhankanya ukuba ndibhala ikharityhulam yobhubhane kwi-NGO yemfundo yamalungelo oluntu ese-US, eye yalingwa kwizikolo zamabanga aphakamileyo kwihlabathi jikelele. Kumsebenzi okhoyo kwiimodyuli ezongeziweyo, ndigxile kutshintsho lwemozulu kunye nobhubhane, kunye namantombazana asemngciphekweni kulo bhubhani, zombini endivumela ukuba ndiqaqambise imiba yobulungisa kwezentlalo kwimeko yengxaki yempilo yabantu, ekhokelela abafundi abancinci ukuba Ubhubhani we-COVID-19 njengethuba elihle lokucinga ngehlabathi kwaye ube ngabatshintshi.
