Princess Lalla Salma Promotes Value of Education
February 14, 2008
Children laugh with each other in a way that we have forgotten.
-Gigi Schweikert from her book, Teacher Tips
Her Royal Highness, Princess Lalla Salma of Morocco, delivering a strong message in her recent address to the 34th General Conference of UNESCO, spoke of her support of education in achieving interfaith and intercultural coexistence.  The Princess insisted that “this ambition will remain but a hollow promise as long as education - notably human rights education, and especially the sacred right to live in security and dignity - will not have received all the attention it deserves, and as long as ignorance, ostracism, fanaticism and terrorism have not been vanquished.”

In appealing to the international community to “bolster the role of UNESCO to fight the demons of the clash of civilization,” she emphasized education’s capacity “to prevent the forces of evil from transforming poverty and illiteracy into the seeds of hate, resentment and violence.”   To learn more about this address, go to http://portal.unesco.org

Dear Colleagues:
I am writing to express interest in to using my extensive editorial skills to assist and support you and your talented team while contributing and bringing new readers and new value to your publication.
In the past 11 years, I have researched, composed, edited, and published over 3,400 pieces on all manner of topics - from health and fitness (I am a fitness and boxing coach) to design and architecture to arts and entertainment to travel and dining to business and entrepreneurship to parenting and education (I have a Masters in education) to whatever editors request of me- and all on time! I have also served as an editor for many daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly publications and know well the demands such positions entail. As such, I wanted to invite you to call on me if I can be of any assistance or if I can help lighten your load by taking on assignments other writers can or will not. I rarely turn down an assignment (though I will if I honestly do not think I can give you what you want) and I am usually able to turn pieces around quickly and to spec with minimal editing or extra work on your part.
I look forward to working with you and hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Matt Robinson, MS
