EDUCATION FOR PEACE .<\/p>\n

An article by Robert J. Burrowes, Anita McKone and Anahata Giri in the TRANSCEND Media Service<\/a> (abbreviated)<\/p>\n

Here is the latest six-monthly report on progress in relation to \u2018The People\u2019s Charter to Create a Nonviolent World\u2019 and a sample of news about Charter signatories. Building a worldwide consensus against the use of violence in all contexts is quite a challenge but we are making solid progress!<\/p>\n

Since our last report on 14 October 2015<\/a> \u2013which Antonio C. S. Rosa kindly published in the TRANSCEND Media Service Weekly Digest\u2014<\/p>\n

\u2013we have gained our first signatories in another four countries \u2013 Argentina, Costa Rica, Kazakhstan and West Papua \u2013 a total of 93 countries now. We also have 104 organisations from 33 countries, the latest of which is the Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Internacional de Poetas based in Brazil. If you wish, you can see the list of organisational endorsements on the Charter website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you wish to see individual signatories, click on the \u2018View signatures\u2019 item in the sidebar. You can use the search facility if you want to look for a specific name.<\/p>\n

The latest progress report article ‘Ending Human Violence is a Task for Each of Us<\/a>\u2019 was recently distributed to many progressive news websites and mainstream newspapers: it was published by a number of progressive outlets in fourteen countries, thanks to very supportive editors\u2013several of whom are Charter signatories. . . <\/p>\n

You may remember that in the last Charter progress report we repeated our promise to report on those of you about whom we knew less by asking you to send us some information about yourself and the reminder that you don\u2019t have to be world famous to be valued here. Well, the good news is that a number of people responded and, in addition, we did some more research ourselves. However, as we continue to find, extraordinary people seem to invariably consider themselves \u2018ordinary\u2019. So, irrespective of how you consider yourself, we would love to hear about you for the next report!<\/p>\n

(Editor\u2019s note: The news of charter signatories is too long to be printed here, so reader\u2019s are encouraged to see them here in the full report<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
