We deplore the confrontations taking place in various regions of the world, as well as the degradation of the natural heritage and human dignity. These developments threaten the very existence of humanity.

CISV is a non governmental organization, educating young people around the world towards peace, and encouraging its members to act upon the following concerns, consistent with CISV philosophy:

• lack of intercultural awareness,
• violations of human and particularly children's rights,
• denial of access to education and possibilities for personal growth,
• internal and regional conflicts,
• tense international relations, underdevelopment, and
• deterioration of the environment.

We urge all people of the world to work together for the peaceful settlement of all conflicts since, above all else, we wish to live together in harmony without the fear and the consequences of all sorts of violence and intolerance.
