Rencontre Internationale de Jeunes pour la Culture de Paix
an article by Cedric Desmarais
J'ai participé dans la Rencontre Internationale de Jeune pour la
Culture de Paix qui s'est déroulée du 8 au 15 juillet à l'initiative du
Mouvement de la Paix. Elle fut subventionné par le Plan Européen pour la
Jeunesse en Action et labellisé "Année Internationale de la Jeunesse"
par l'ONU.

Une
centaine de jeunes de diverses nationalités se sont rassemblés autour
de plusieurs table ronde et ateliers. Nous avons rédigé grâce aux
attendus des débat un Appel International de Jeune pour la Culture de
paix. Nous avons également pu organiser une manifestation commune sur la
base militaire de Avord d'où partent les avions français AWAX pour la
guerre en Libye et où sont pratiqué des test d'armes à l'Uranium
appauvri.
Nous avons travaillé sur les 8 points de la culture de
paix lors de nos débat et les jeunes ont appris a s'apprécier par de là
leur différence culturelle suscitant ainsi une ambiance de bonne
camaraderie.
Je vous transmet le lien vers le site de la
rencontre sur lequel vous trouverez note Appel ainsi qu'un résumé
quotidien de nos activités: http://rij2011.wordpress.com/

The Youth
for Culture of Peace Report was mentioned in the high-level
report of the Alliance of Civilizations that was presented to the United
Nations on 13 November 2006, as its first recommendation of for
its activities in relation to youth.
The Global Youth Solidarity Fund formulated by the report is proposed in the form of a Global Youth Alliance:
"A
Global Youth Alliance should be established as a mechanism through
which youth can contribute to the implementation of all of the
recommendations set forth in this report (not just those under the
'youth' theme)."
"Supported by a Global Youth Solidarity Fund,
this initiative could begin with the convening and mobilization of
various youth networks and associations to promote dialogue, alliance
and a culture of peace. These organizations have already begun working
together to organize meetings that would provide the opportunity for
young people of diverse backgrounds to set an agenda for action which
they can then present to global leaders to win their support and
assistance. In addition, a survey has been conducted a survey has been
conducted identifying 468 youth organizations from 125 countries that
could be engaged as implementing partners."
