UN Message to the World:
A Global Collaboration Through The Arts
The UN Message to the World Mural is a collaborative project between The Mary Ward Centre (the Loretto Sisters, IBVM Canada) and Cardinal Carter Academy for the Arts in Toronto.
Participating countries have been invited to take the UN MY WORLD 2015 survey. Using this as a basis for their work, countries create a mural depicting their vision for the world. This project provides the platform for participants to engage in education and dialogue about our future. It also encourages an active and creative involvement in the UN’s movement from the Millennium Development Goals to the Sustainable Development Goals.
Feedback from participating countries has been wonderful. Not only do we now have beautiful murals and creations, but participants have shared how informative and educational the entire process has been.
We are grateful to everyone for their participation and involvement. Mary Ward’s invitation to “know and acknowledge the gifts of God and thank God for them” is clearly very much at work in our world today!
