To give voice to the new generations who wish to take over and leave their marks, installing the culture of nonviolence in the collective imagery, in the education, the politics, in the society...In the same way as the ecological awareness had been installed in short years.
Organization
Promoters Teams
- The Promoters Teams (PT) that would emerge by actions and projects raising from the social base, with the spirit of "each one takes the reponsibility of what he or she proposes"
- In the countries with PT in various cities, a Promoter Team of the Country will be articulated. In these PT, organizations as well as individuals can participate.
- These PT will put the horizontality, the collaborative attitude and the consensus as a working form and style to coordinate the initiatives.
Support Platforms (SP)
- They are equally conformed by individuals, groups, including institutions.
- They are wider and more diverse space of participation than the PT where a great quantitiy of initiatives can be given, be it for example by sectors (educators, youngsters, women) or by locations (neighbourhoods, cities, universities),etc
- The SP will have necessarily some representatives or contacts with the PT of the city.
International Coordination
- To coordinate the diverse initiatives, calendars and routes, a space of international coordination between countries and regions is needed.
