DR. PHINEHAS KINUTHIA SPEAKS UP ON HUMAN RIGHTS AND THE VALUE OF ALL MANKIND

________________

The launch of the Human Rights Global Congress by IChange Nations™ in Grand Rapids Michigan was a life changing event. It was exciting and inspiring to have people from all walks of life come together and begin the conversation on how to educate the world on their Human Rights. It was inspiring to hear from each great leader.

The underlying theme was how valuable each of us are in our uniqueness and why we are to contribute towards humanity’s development by educating our children.  What inspired me was the paradigm that human rights issue is all about potential. There is untapped potential in everyone and so when we violate the human rights of others such as their rights for equality and freedom we deny them the opportunity to maximize on their abilities and who they were meant to be. This in return becomes potential wasted and humanity misses out on the value of that person’s contribution to the world. So every person should be valued.

It was also clear that the education of people on Human Rights has to start with our children. The average person cannot quote all the 30 Human Rights in the Universal Declaration of the Human Rights.  So we are to start helping people learn and understand their rights so they can become proponents and advocates of causes that support these rights.  It was an honor to contribute to this great conversation.

DR. CLYDE RIVERS PRESIDENT OF ICHANGE NATIONS™ FOUNDER OF GOLDEN RULE DIALOGUE

Dr. Clyde Rivers

There is a universal principle that will produce an ethic of peace around the world. That principle is “Treat others the way you want to be treated,” or commonly known as the Golden Rule. If this principle were applied to any and every life, business, city, country or nation, the results would be peaceful habitation. Dr. Clyde Rivers has developed what he has labeled, ‘Golden Rule Dialogue.’ “Golden Rule Dialogue is the place to begin. Without civil dialogue that takes into consideration the perspectives and value of others, we cannot come to any form of peaceful agreement on how to live together in this world and be productive people,” says Dr. Rivers. This dilemma has motivated the World Peace Ambassador Clyde Rivers to begin the dialogue that needs to take place.  He is currently doing “Golden Rule Chats” on several social media channels. Everywhere he goes his message remains consistent, “Treat others the way you want to be treated,” it will change our world. He is training individuals, city, state and government leaders and church leaders to name a few, to form strategies in which to build Golden Rule Dialogue in their sphere of influence. Dr. Clyde Rivers is considered a Golden Rule Dialogue Expert around the world.

One of the focuses of IChange Nations™ and Dr. Rivers is to honor and uphold the value of mankind. Recognizing that every life is created – for a purpose, with a purpose – and we need to preserve the gift of purpose in others. By exercising Golden Rule Dialogue in any arena of the world, you will notice a value on others that is exercised in the process. When an individual recognizes his or her voice is being heard, it changes the dynamics of the situation and creative is allowed to manifest. Seeking to understand each other’s perspective is crucial to this process.

IChange Nations™is at this time the World’s Largest Honoring Network Establishing Cultures of Honor around the world. ICN has established a system that is bringing back honor to the world.
