Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar joins local experts for panel discussion on crime prevention through social interventions

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar joins local experts for panel discussion on crime prevention through social interventions

Noting that it is unwavering in its commitment to spearheading innovative solutions, The Amber Group Ltd will host an exclusive panel discussion, headlined “Reshaping Tomorrow: Crime Prevention Through Social Interventions”, which it says is poised to shape Jamaica’s future.

Scheduled for December 12, 2024, at The Summit, the pivotal gathering is open to the public and promises to be one of the most significant dialogues on crime prevention in Jamaica’s history, as the country grapples with critical challenges related to crime and violence, the company said in a press release.

The event will assemble Jamaica’s foremost leaders and experts alongside the esteemed global humanitarian, Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, founder of the Art of Living Foundation (AOLF). Gurudev’s unparalleled experience and dedication to social reform make his participation a cornerstone of this essential conversation, Amber Group said.

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has touched the lives of over 500 million people worldwide through his transformative humanitarian efforts. Recognised with many highest civilian awards, citations, proclamations, and keys from numerous countries, and holder of 27 honorary doctorates, Gurudev’s leadership in mental wellness and community empowerment through education and health initiatives has set a global standard for peacebuilding and social intervention.

Distinguished panelists include Senator Dr Dana Morris Dixon, Minister of Education, Skills, Youth & Information; Juliet Cuthbert-Flynn, State Minister in the Ministry of National Security Senator Akba Fitz Henley, Parliamentary Secretary in the Office of the Prime Minister; Senator Peter Bunting, Shadow Minister of National Security; Senator Donna Scott-Mottley, Shadow Minister of Justice; Allan Bernard, Deputy Shadow Minister of Social Transformation and Protection; Keith Duncan, Group CEO of JMMB and Co-Chair of Project STAR; and Miguel Williams, Community Development Manager at the Digicel Foundation.

The event’s moderator is Ambassador Dushyant Savadia, Special Investment Envoy for Technology.
This elite panel will engage in two dynamic and interactive discussions, delving deep into innovative and sustainable strategies to eradicate crime by tackling its social, economic, and emotional roots.

Emphasising proactive intervention over punitive measures, the dialogue will explore the pivotal roles of education, community-building, and rehabilitation in fostering safer, more resilient Jamaican communities, the organisers said.

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s profound insights into peace and compassion will illuminate how social interventions can effectively address the underlying causes of crime, inspiring actionable change and lasting positive impact.

Due to the high demand and limited seating, the organisers said early registration is essential.

“Don’t miss this unique opportunity to be part of Jamaica’s transformative journey toward a crime-free future. Seats are limited and expected to fill quickly,” the release stated.

For those unable to attend in person, the event will be live-streamed on the Amber Group YouTube channel, ensuring that the invaluable insights reach a broader audience.

Event Details:
● Date: December 12, 2024
● Time: 12:30pm – 2:00pm
● Venue: The Summit, Kingston, Jamaica
