World March for Peace and Nonviolence

Help build a new nonviolent global consciousness

The World March, October 2, 2009 – January 2, 2010

The World March began in Wellington, New Zealand on October 2 and will end in Punta de Vacas, Argentina on January 2, 2010. It will last 90 days and be carried out in its entirety by 100 people, with millions joining and participating along the way.

The Edmonton March, November 21st, 2009:

We will meet at Sir Wilfred Laurier Park at 12:00 pm to begin the march. Our march will end at William Hawrelak Park, where we will gather for refreshments and a rally.

Some good reasons to march:

Because eliminating wars and violence means leaving human pre-history behind and taking a giant step forward in the evolution of our species.

Because we are accompanied by the voices of the hundreds of generations that came before us who have longed and worked for peace.

Because with 10% of what is spent on arms, we can end world hunger.

Because a “world without wars” is an image that opens the future and seeks to become reality in every corner of the planet, as violence gives way to dialogue.
