Cher(e)s ami(e)s,

Mes plus vives salutations pour 2009 et mes meilleurs voeux à tous et à toutes !

Travaillons ensemble pour rapprocher le monde de la culture de la paix dans les deux prochaines et dernières années de la Décennie internationale de la promotion d'une culture de la non-violence et de la paix au profit des enfants du monde.

Il y a actuellement plusieurs discussions afin de savoir comment célébrer la fin de la décennie en 2010, et comment prolonger ses actions dans les dix années à venir. Il sera important de faire des plans concrets pendant l'année 2009. À cet égard, vos suggestions seront bienvenues, et je les éditerai dans la prochaine édition du bulletin.

Pour clôturer l'année 2008, veuillez trouvez ci-dessous, les articles les plus récents que vous avez envoyés à CPNN (la Culture de Paix Réseau des Infos).
