Episode 11 - Jenny Bonham-Carter - Parenting

Jenny Bonham Carter is also currently serving on the board of Cooperative Metropolitan Ministries, Newton, MA.

She writes, "My first experience of interfaith work started about five and a half years ago. I was then in the middle of doing my masters degree in human rights at the university of Uppsala in Sweden and I was planning for the semester of field work. I did this with a youth interfaith organization in Sweden called "Together for Sweden" and when the field work semester was over I stayed involved and partly employed in the project pretty much until we moved from Sweden to the US last spring. I wrote my thesis on interfaith work and the connection with human rights, this was also an evaluation of the project. Parts of my thesis was later used in a book on interfaith workshop methods etc published by the project. The main activity of Together for Sweden is to bring youth of different religions together, to offer them a leadership training (storytelling is also part of it) and give workshops in schools and a few other places. I was involved in this training, the workshops, helping organizing conferences and other activities. I was responsible for music during the interfaith services we had regularly over a year (I'm a part-time musician, while my bread and adult training has always been social work – mainly Children and families assessment Work for social services but I've also worked with development aid in west Africa, mental Health etc.).

Through Together for Sweden I became member of the interfaith council for Peace in Stockholm whose main purpose was to organize the UN initiated Interfaith harmony week.

My children are 10, 8 and 3. Myself I've got one younger brother.
