PROGRESS: Has your organization seen
progress toward a culture of peace and nonviolence in your domain of
action and in your constituency during the first half of the Decade? |
Education,
especially schools, play the main role in building young people's
characters, because as we all know students spend most of their time at
school environment.
|
OBSTACLES: What are the most important obstacles that have prevented progress?
|
Children
are being treated badly, cruelly & actually violently. At home, for
example, so many parents try to manage their kids problems by beating
or yelling, not knowing that this awful behavior will create new &
maybe worst problems.
The problem is also that teachers usually
use tough punishments including aggressive indications that may scratch
students feelings in order to gain silence, not caring to the effects
of these unpleasant ways. All these bad treatments may lead to
deeper problems beginning from being violent with their friends then
causing to be school leavers & finally ending with becoming
criminals.
And still, this is not the real problem…...we are still
unable to define violence correctly; Violence is not only to deal with
others with a stick near by, or to talk loudly. this is only one side
of it, its something as the sword it has two effects; it can threaten
others & it can hurt the body itself.
|
ACTIONS: What actions have been
undertaken by your organization to promote a culture of peace and
nonviolence during the first half of the Decade?
|
I
believe that prevention is the key to success & that all of us must
be one hand to prevent violence to obtain world full of peace.
|
ADVICE: What advice would you like to
give to the Secretary-General and the General Assembly to promote a
culture of peace and nonviolence during the second half of the Decade? |
Because children are our bright future we must work together in order to keep them as far as possible from violence.
In
the first step, we should bare in mind that protecting these pure souls
is not only by ending children abuse but also by preventing them from
being abused.
|
PARTNERSHIPS: What partnerships and
networks does your organization participate in, thus strengthening the
global movement for a culture of peace? |
The school is part of the Life-Link Friendship-Schools network.
|
PLANS: What new engagements are
planned by your organization to promote a culture of peace and
nonviolence in the second half of the Decade (2005-2010)? |
