The 2022 Ron Hering Awards

24th Annual Event – Hosted by the ManKind Project Switzerland

Do you know a man in your community who stands out by living his life in Mission?

Hello brothers of the world,

The Swiss community is happy and proud to be able to host this year’s Ron Hering Award. I invite all of us to join our efforts to joyfully prepare the meeting, which will allow us to celebrate men among us.

With this celebration, we will thank several men, guys who had the inspiration and the guts to start a movement of positive transformation across the world and cultures.

Through this celebration, we will thank the men who have invested themselves year after year so that the movement of transformation touches each and every one of us.

In this celebration we will honor the Trial-and-Error that we have done, we will cry for the suffering that has been involved, but mostly we will be grateful for the transformation that we have experienced.

On behalf of the MKP-Switzerland community,

Bonjour hommes et frères du monde,

La communauté Suisse est heureuse et fière de pouvoir accueillir cette année le Ron Hering Award. Je nous invite tous à réunir nos efforts pour préparer avec joie la rencontre qui nous permettra de célébrer des hommes parmi nous.

Par cette célébration, ce sont quelques hommes que nous remercierons, des gars qui auront eu l’inspiration et les tripes de lancer un mouvement de transformation positive à travers le monde et les cultures.

Par cette célébration, nous remercierons les hommes qui se sont investis année après année pour que le mouvement de transformation touche chacun de nous.

Par cette célébration nous honorerons les apprentissages par essais et erreurs que nous avons fait, nous pleurerons les souffrances qui y ont été liées mais surtout nous marquerons notre gratitude pour la transformation vécue.

Au nom de la communauté MKP-Suisse,
Marc Sneiders
Ours lumineux et espiègle
dans le rôle de président de MKP-Suisse

Hallo Männer und Brüder in aller Welt

Die Schweizer Gemeinschaft ist glücklich und stolz, dieses Jahr den Ron Hering Award zu empfangen. Ich lade uns alle ein, unsere Kräfte zu bündeln und uns mit Freude auf das Treffen vorzubereiten, bei dem wir Männer unter uns ehren werden.

Mit dieser Ehrung werden wir drei Männern danken – Männern, die die Inspiration und die Guts hatten, eine positive Transformation für Menschen in der ganzen Welt und über Kulturen hinweg in Gang zu setzen.

Mit dieser Ehrung werden wir den Männern danken, die sich Jahr für Jahr dafür eingesetzt haben, dass die Transformation jeden von uns erreicht.

Mit dieser Ehrung ehren wir die durch Versuch und Irrtum geprägten Lernprozesse, die wir durchlaufen haben, wir betrauern die damit verbundenen Leiden, aber vor allem bringen wir unsere Dankbarkeit für die erlebte Transformation zum Ausdruck.

Im Namen der Gemeinschaft von MKP Schweiz
