Some interesting news about peace and peace initiatives sent to us by Gilles Asselin of SIETAR USA.

I attended a meeting in New York last week where a person from Paris, in
charge of the Coalition of NGOs involved in the Decade for the Promotion of
a Culture of Peace for the Children of the World (2001- 2010), came to talk
about European NGOs initiatives in that area.

And inquired about any interest in the US to form such a coalition.

Interestingly enough, there is a Salon/conference, organized by the French
Coordination of NGOs, about a Culture of Peace and Non- Violence. It will
take place at the Cite des Sciences et de l'Industrie, Metro Porte de la
Villette, between June 4-6 (Friday - Sunday).

In case Edith, Chris or Michelle could make it one of these three days. The
entrance fee is quite affordable, Euros 5. Or Euros 10 for the three days.

Here are two websites link about the French Coordination. The site is
mostly in French but the second link is in English. Quite a nice intiative!

Maybe it will give some ideas to SIETAR members. In France and all over the
world.
