then circulate and sign the UN petition.

Tomorrow it begins: the 100-Day Countdown to the 2009 International Day of Peace! The UN Department of Public Information has launched an exciting web-based campaign to build momentum on the theme “We Must Disarm!” – and they are counting on us to help it to sail around the world.

Here are some ways to begin:

Sign the “We Must Disarm Declaration” on the UN Foundation website at http://www.globalproblems-globalsolutions.org/site/PageNavigator/UNF_We_Must_Disarm_Declaration

Read the Secretary-General’s statement, attached or at http://www.un.org/sg/peacedaymessage2009.shtml


We are also seeing major initiatives in the NGO community. Please note that Mayor Akiba of Hiroshima has endorsed the 100-Day Countdown to the IDP on the Mayors for Peace website at http://www.mayorsforpeace.org/english/090611_100_day%20message_from_mayor_akiba.pdf

This year, let us galvanize the peace community and every sane person on the planet to make the International Day of Peace the tipping point for humankind to finally say “no!” to nuclear weapons and “yes!” to peace in one united voice!

MAY PEACE PREVAIL ON EARTH! ...&
