Review & Workshop Outline
Goal: To redefine ETIQUETTE and its application in today’s
sociological problems. Our finished curriculum will be made
available for use in institutes schools and organizations of any
budget.

Overview: Since the dawn of human society and high culture,

moral laws, protocol and social order were greatly revered and
followed by civilized peoples and in particularity people of Ancient
Kemet/Egypt (which is the proper name for the land known today
as Egypt); Ancient Egypt was known as “the light of the world”.
It  gave the world it’s first codified laws of moral behavior and
ethical conduct written in the Medu Neter (hieroglyphics).

Agrarian societies and people with moral laws flourished while

others without them wandered without end. These rules of moral
and social order were intended for the young as well as the old
because the actions of an individual reflected on the village, tribe
or society to which they belonged. In the golden age of humanity
moral responsibility was a serious obligation which spoke volumes
about the level of spirituality and civility attained by a culture.

Today’s Dilemma: Many institutions, public and private,
are no longer providing the necessary personal training
that empowers our children and future generations.

Goal: To form an Advisory Board / Think Tank to address

behavioral conducts that promote and lead to further the
demoralizing of marginalized communities.

The Advisory Board will add a modern approach to the

development of programs which will empower individuals
and groups in the proper use of good manners and
etiquette. This will be done while preserving cultural
traditions
