President of Local Web Development Company Speaks at Global Conference

Troy, MI, October 30, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Social media is becoming more ingrained in our world, and national peace organizations are finding the medium good for more than just a casual conversation.

On October 28 through October 30, a Global Forum will be taking place in Bangkok, Thailand. The forum is centered on building peace through communication and information. The conference is facilitated by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, UNESCO.

Media Genesis President Antoine Dubeauclard is one of the speakers at the conference. He will be presenting a social media platform and how it can be used to exchange information and create discussion relating to peace. He is presenting the platform along with Abdul Waheed Khan, assistant director-general for communication and information, UNESCO, and David Nostbakken, UNESCO consultant for The Power of Peace Network.

“Utilizing social media is a great way to start motivated and intelligent conversations on peace because of its ability to be discussed on a global level,” Dubeauclard said. “People can interact with issues relating to their local area and also learn about what other countries are facing. Better global understanding can create unity to work toward common solutions.”

Some of the other speakers at the conference include:

Chinnapat Bhumirat, vice-chair of the National Commission for UNESCO, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education (Thailand)

Hiroshi Matsumoto, trustee, International House of Japan (Japan)

Patricia Morris, executive director, Peace X Peace (USA)
