Breaking Through the Stained Glass Ceiling: Women Religious Leaders in Their Own Words" Maureen Fiedler, Editor Forward by Kathleen Kennedy Townsend In Breaking Through the Stained Glass Ceiling, Maureen Fiedler says that women are rising, as never before, to leadership in the world of religion -- in multiple roles and in faith traditions across the board. Although women have not yet reached the "nirvana" of full gender equality, a cultural trend has been set. The book features Maureen's interviews with dozens of women from many faith traditions done for Interfaith Voices over the past seven years. They include denominational and organizational leaders, theologians and scripture scholars, leaders in the field of spirituality, social justice and peace, interfaith relations and religious media. Maureen Fiedler, SL is the host of Interfaith Voices, a public radio show, heard on 71 radio stations in North America, including WAMU 88.5 FM in the Washington area. (Sunday afternoons, 4 pm). She has been involved in interfaith activities for more than three decades as an active participant in coalitions working for social justice, racial and gender equality, and peace. Her special interests lie at the intersection of theology and public policy. She is the editor of a new book (June, 2010) called Breaking Through the Stained Glass Ceiling: Women Religious Leaders in Their Own Words which highlights the growing leadership of women in the world of religion.

La giornata inaugurale di MADE expo si interrogherà sulle prospettive delleconomia planetaria e sugli scenari di una ripresa che in Europa e in Italia potrebbe offrire un nuovo ruolo di protagonista in una prospettiva di sostenibilità ambientale al mondo delle aziende e degli operatori che supportano il mercato edilizio ed immobiliare. Coinvolgendo studiosi, politici, operatori economici e finanziari, progettisti, la giornata di studi intende discutere le reali possibilità che lEXPO 2015 diventi levento-pilota di un graduale processo di ripresa delleconomia e il ruolo strategico di MADE expo.
Si è aperta oggi MADE expo 2010, terza edizione della manifestazione dedicata al mondo delle costruzioni e del progetto, che prosegue fino a sabato 6 febbraio. Il convegno inaugurale Il domani del mondo e lExpo 2015. I segni di una ripresa delleconomia planetaria davanti alle grandi sfide della crescita sostenibile delle città, alla presenza di oltre 1000 operatori e professionisti qualificati del settore nellAuditorium di Fiera Milano Rho, ha sottolineato il ruolo centrale del settore costruzioni per generare nuovi modelli possibili di sviluppo sostenibile. Una sfida e una grande responsabilità approfondita dagli interventi di Jeremy Rifkin, Carlo Petrini, Stefano Boeri e Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, che hanno presentato importanti contributi tutti orientati al necessario cambiamento del sistema economico, politico e industriale mondiale per garantire un domani possibile e vivibile. Un futuro a misura duomo e dambiente che nasce da una concezione del costruire come strumento per rendere più bello il mondo, da una nuova visione del risparmio energetico e da una nuova produzione diffusa dellenergia, grazie allintroduzione del fotovoltaico integrato nelle costruzioni: elementi che convergono in un modo nuovo di comunicare. Non solo idee al convegno, ma anche la necessità di dare forma alle nuove soluzioni coniugando le idee alla capacità di agire e investire.
