A NEW CULTURE OF PEACE
International and Multilingual Website: A NEW CULTURE OF PEACE FROM SOCIAL HARMONY AND CHILDREN’S PRIORITY YES - TO HARMONIOUS PEACE FROM THE INFORMATION AND SOCIAL PRIORITY OF CHILDREN NO - TO WARS, TERRORISM AND POVERTY FROM INDUSTRIAL DISHARMONY The International, Cosmopolitan, Multicultural and InterdisciplinaryWebsite is a daughter Website of the International Forum for the Literature and Culture of Peace: IFLAC PAVE PEACE. This remarkable organization, and especially the tireless work of its founder and president, Professor Ada Aharoni, a true global citizen, have inspired us to start this Website “Peace from Harmony and Children’s Priority” Key definition: A new culture of peace, preventing wars, terrorism and poverty, is generated when a natural order of social harmony gives priority to the well-being of children, parents, and caregivers, who make up 50 to 80% of the population in any given country.These groups are basically peace-loving, and provide the social foundation for a harmonious, new culture of peace. Mahatma Gandhi wrote: "If we are ever to have real peace in this world we shall have to begin with the children." Website’s Mission: To build a harmonious, new culture of peace and its social foundation by means of the new Global Movement “Making Children a Priority in the World" Our site is open to all persons and organizations sharing this mission.
