PROGRESS: Has your organization seen progress toward a culture of peace and nonviolence in your domain of action and in your constituency during the second half of the Decade?

Our guess is yes, using the creative process in creating Ribbon panels an putting a picture on a cloth panel (Justine Merritt the Founder of the Ribbon, named it the New Ribbon of Tangible HOPE), exhibiting the panels helps people to realize the process for a Culture of Peace versus a Culture of War.

OBSTACLES: Has your organization faced any obstacles to implementing the culture of peace and nonviolence? If so, what were they?

None

PLANS: What new engagements are planned by your organization in the short, medium and long term to promote a culture of peace and nonviolence?

Keep the terminology on our website and promote it.

GLOBAL MOVEMENT: How do you think the culture of peace and nonviolence could be strengthened and supported at the world level??

The COP terminology "Culture of Peace" is good compared to "Culture of Violence" or "Culture of War."
