MIRIAM FELICIA LINDBERG MEMORIAL FOUNDATION
The Lindberg Peace Foundation encourages innovative poetic compositions and organizes international Poetry for Peace Competitions that grants annual awards to gifted poets. The Foundation publishes the writings of Gustawa Stendig-Lindberg and Miriam Felicia Lindberg and focuses on developing all-inclusive artistic and educational programs for Global Peace. The Foundation memorializes the survivors and the victims of the Holocaust through poetry, music and art.
International Poetry for Peace Poetry competition
Since the late 1970’s, Prof. G. Stendig-Lindberg was active in promoting Poetry Peace prizes, to honor the memory of her daughter Miriam Felicia Lindberg. An International Poetry for Peace Poetry competition is held annually where a committee of judges evaluate poems submitted by poets from throughout the world and award a prize for distinguished poetic achievement for poems that inspire sustainable peace.
Goals
The Lindberg Peace Foundations supports Artists, Writers, Poets and Peace Workers. We encourage creative and innovative peace efforts that can be put into practice in the Middle East and duplicated in other areas of conflict. While each conflict on the planet has a unique regional, historical and cultural context, the foundation believes that the characteristics of sustainable solutions can be very similar. We focus on long-term cooperation with individuals who invest their time and effort into developing a firm coalition of spirit and soul that can transform boundaries of hatred and violence and seemingly irreconcilable competing interests.
