A World Citizen’s Call to Action * Rene Wadlow As world citizens,(worldcitizensunited.org) we are aware that we are entering into a new era in the evolution of humanity within the world society. In order to develop a culture of peace based on reverence for life and non-violence, we join in cooperative action: To advance human fellowship through mutual trust and understanding; To overcome hostility and aggressiveness; To foster an enlightened synthesis of cultures through education and dialogue; To build with joy a world society based on freedom and justice. Thus, together we strive to safeguard the delicate balance of the natural environment and to develop the world’s resources for the common good. Together we work to safeguard and implement all human rights — civil and political, economic, social and cultural — as the foundations of a just world society. Together, we strive to safeguard all communities from the scourge of war and violence and to develop non-violent methods to resolve conflicts. We see the rise of a new spirit of liberty throughout the world. The old structures of oppression and domination are crumbling — those of caste, class, gender and ethnicity. They are being replaced by the values of equality, respect and cooperation, with an emphasis on popular participation and ecologically-sound development. Join us in this common cause! *Rene Wadlow, President and Representative to the United Nations, Geneva, Association of World CITIZENS!
