I applaud the following appeal which adds to the strategy for a non-violent world which I submitted to the State of the World Forum in San Francisco in 1995 and reproduced as Introduction to ideas 601 to 700:
AN APPEAL FOR CHILDREN OF THE WORLD
>From 23 Nobel Peace Prize Laureates Fall 1997
In every single country throughout the world many children are silently suffering the effects and consequences of violence. This violence takes many forms - physical, psychological, socio-economic, and environmental.
In order to reduce the suffering of children these Laureates are addressing an appeal to all Heads of State of all member countries of the General Assembly of the United Nations, for the UN General Assembly to declare:
• That the first decade of the new millennium, the years 2000-2010, be declared the "Decade for a Culture of Nonviolence."
• That the year 2000 be declared the "Year of Education for Non-violence."
• That non-violence be taught at every level in our societies, to make the children of the world aware of the practical meaning and benefits of non-violence in their daily lives.
Together, we can build a new culture of non-violence for humankind which will give hope to all humanity and in particular to the children of the world.
With deepest respect,
The Nobel Peace Prize Laureates
