PEOPLE’S Movement for a Mandate of World Peace. The goal is the abolition of war and the re-allocation of funds used for military spending. We propose that the military/defense/offense budgets of all governments be directed to humanitarian spending. The first beneficiaries of this spending will be children in all parts of the world. We believe that concern for the children is a unifying concept for women everywhere. Nations of the world will see that their most important function is to make sure that all children have access to
• shelter, • medical care • education. The way we propose to accomplish this is the implementation of a three phase, global movement of Nonviolent Resistance to violence and war. The first phase of this movement begins with the leadership of women. We ask women throughout the world to proclaim: “We will not allow war and we will intervene with every non-violent means possible to prevent or stop it. We do this to safeguard and protect all children.” During this first phase, we hope that a Council of Women will help to define and promote a Global Strategy of Non-Violence. This council will bring together influential women who believe in peace and who are already working for peace in a variety of ways. This council will help to organize women throughout the world to participate in mass rallies for peace, as well as to gain access to the media and to governmental bodies where they can promote the global strategy of non-violence. During the second phase, peacekeepers will help nations learn to use conflict resolution rather than violence as a way to settle disputes. The guiding focus of conflict resolution will be children’s welfare and secure future. The goal of conflict resolution is to provide nations with an alternative to war and a realistic strategy for survival in this increasingly dangerous world. Peace must be seen as the new defense, rather than weapons. (In the words of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, “When they asked me about a weapon able to resist the power of the atomic bomb, I suggested the best of all: Peace.") The third phase, will be characterized by humanitarian programs for children, funded by the money that had been used for military spending. |
