for A Better World -
A Global New Thought |
Global Resources Network |
Looking back on 2004, and despite the Tsunami disaster, the Iraq war and other major social, political, economic and environmental challenges, we can at least celebrate the major progress We, The World has made building the international networks needed to address the major problems humanity faces.
In particular, we were able to launch 11 Days of Global Unity in over 100 cities/80 countries. 11 Days represents a powerful new platform for international grassroots cooperation to create social and environmental well-being around the world! And we are already building on this success with 10% for Peace and the Global Resources Network starting January 1, 2005! (See below for descriptions.)
We would like to express our deep appreciation to our many supporters, donors, and our extraordinary international 11 Days participants and team (see bottom):
By expanding our global networks of collaboration, we can greatly increase public involvement in the critical work of creating a peaceful and sustainable world. Your tax deductible online contribution (or check to the address at the top) will help us continue and amplify our efforts. Thank you!
11 Days of Global Unity 2004 was a global promotion of peace and sustainability with concerts, festivals, webcasts, and other events taking place in over 100 cities (80 countries) worldwide ending on Sept. 21, 2004, the International Day of Peace. Participants and supporters included Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Jane Goodall, Deepak Chopra, Irene Khan, Marianne Williamson, and many others (see bottom). These events were designed to engage the public, maximize awareness about humanity's major challenges and give people ways to take action on the spot! Please see our Report on 11 Days of Global Unity at www.WeTheWorld.org/11daysreport).

Global Resources Network
This breakthrough model of collaboration and mutual support will allow
1,000s of socially conscious organizations, businesses and individuals
to effectively work together. At a time when there is so much suffering
in the world, and the obstacles to peace and sustainability are so great,
the Global Resources Network (GRN) will provide the resources and interconnectivity
to facilitate local, regional and international civil society collaboration
and organizing. We envision this as a tool to:
1) significantly improve the effectiveness and visibility of civil society organizations and socially conscious businesses worldwide,
2) organize large-scale Public International Events that engage, inform and involve a global audience. 11 Days of Global Unity in Sept. 2004 was the first of these with events taking place in over 100 cities around the world.
