Diversity Lecture Series XV - Prince Cedza Dlamini, "Global Forgiveness and Connectedness"
Humanitarian, Social Entrepreneur
Cedza Dlamini’s vision is to create a unified global order of young leaders working to collectively address world problems, such as HIV/AIDS, poverty, hunger and illiteracy. He travels the world to help young people recognize their connectedness to each and their power to change their surroundings. As the grandson of Nelson Mandela, he carries on the activism and investment in community leading him to expose young people to the leadership and professional skills they need in their communities.
He founded the Ubuntu Institute for Young Social Entrepreneurs, to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, the United Nation’s eight point strategy to eradicate poverty, hunger and disease in Africa. His work promotes global forgiveness, compassion and the use of dialogue, instead of violence for conflict resolution. Dlamini also serves on the strategic development team of the Global Action Network in New York.
Grand Rapids Community College integrates its
commitment to diversity repetitively in words and
actions. The Diversity Lectures Series offered through the Bob and Aleicia Woodrick Diversity Learning Center (WDLC) is intended to give insight and understanding of multicultural issues to the Grand Rapids Community.
Free and open to the public.
