ACTIONS: What activities have been undertaken by your organization to promote a culture of peace and nonviolence during the ten years of the Decade? If you already made a report in 2005, your information from 2005 will be included in the 2010 report.

Participation in International Fora about human rights, children's rights and peace education.
Participation in European Programs Socrates-Grundtvig concerning preparation for parenthood, in five (5) European countries (Greece, France, Latvia, Bulgaria, Romania).
Also participation in European Programs Socrates-Grundtvig concerning preparation for parenthood of young people in the labor area.
Organization of International and National Congresses, of training seminars, public conferences and workshops about Prenatal Education and its effects on a culture of peace.
Publication and distribution of books and brochures in a number of languages on 'parenthood before the birth of a child', 'prenatal education' and its value and effectiveness for the preparation for a world of peace.

It must be noted that in all our national and international congresses. the most famous researchers of the contemporary scientific centers on prenatal parenthood and the humanization of these fundamental first phases of life, are the main speakers, and these persons are also the main collaborators for our Organizations.

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?

We observe a great effect on health, psychological balance and peaceful character of the children born by parents conscious of their prenatal educational role. This effect is valuable for all the countries where our Associations of Prenatal Education are situated and work to achieve  these objectives.
OMAEP assimilates 17 Associations from all over the World and these Associations are very active, working with youth, couples, future parents  from all levels of society.
In some countries, prenatal education has been accepted as necessary preparation for parenthood and as a prevention of all disabilities.

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

Our Organizations main goal is to integrate Prenatal Education in the National Education and Health Institutions.
This proposed by our Organization integration is not accepted so easily in many countries. This is due to the anachronistic educational systems that do not permit for new scientific knowledge to be assimilated.
The extensive distribution of Prenatal Education brochures, necessitates a financial support, which is not always easy to come by.

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

Collaboration with many international NGO working for a culture of peace and education.

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

Prenatal education – a foundation for a healthy, balanced
and creative new generation and for world peace

How to create a new generation, with healthy, balanced, creative and joyful children, is the first preoccupation of every person, every country.
But scientific recent researches of the last 30-50 years have revealed that parents can effectively favor the arrival of such children into the world; on one condition: that they start the education of their children before their birth, even before their conception.
During the prenatal period of life the whole organism of the new human being      (his health) is constructed, but even his psychological balance, his character, his sociability, and his moral qualities and talents are developed, by the constant registrations on his cellular memory of the thoughts, feelings, sensations of his mother and father. The mother –and through her the father- during pregnancy are the complete physical and psychological living raw material for the child.
By giving their child the most healthy, positive and harmonious everyday life and their unconditional love and their positive thoughts for him/her, they can construct his health, psychological balance, inner peace and creativity. He/she is constantly receiving whatever the mother thinks or feels and registers these first experiences, which construct his body and color his personality.
“Future parents are the genetic engineers of their child. They have to be informed.” (Bruce Lipton, geneticist)
Therefore, if I had to choose only one idea, one knowledge that would transform the world, I would prefer this scientifically acknowledged idea of prenatal education that leads to the preparation of healthy, peaceful and creative new generations by the prevention of all disabilities in the roots of life: inform couples and the youth about their great educational role during the first stage of the life of their child and awaken the general awareness in people about the importance of prenatal life and the necessity of prenatal education.
This information is very simple. It can be spread through all the modern means of communication and it must be integrated in the health, education and public services and institutions, national and international. The effects will be enormous: on health, psychological balance, moral qualities, talents, creativity of the new generations and therefore in the economic development of all nations and the welfare and peace of the international society.
