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?

As we are a part of the world, we have to preserve it and to create peace in it. The beginning of this work has already been done at Kuršenai Pavenciu Secondary School.

OBSTACLES: What are the most important obstacles that have prevented progress?

None reported.

ACTIONS: What actions have been undertaken by your organization to promote a culture of peace and nonviolence during the first half of the Decade?

Participation in international project MDM (“Mankind Memorial”) and traditional school events such as ‘Ways of Lithuanian Independence and Fight’, ‘History of Lithuanian Army’, ‘History Frozen for a Moment’, essay competitions ‘My Grandparents and  Ancestors’ Neighbours Jews’, ‘Story of One Life’, expositions ‘Photos from the Old Album’, ‘They Protected Independence’, ‘Terror – No’ help pupils understand the past events which were experienced by their grandparents, parents and other members of the community.

Tolerance is a value opening the door to the real aims, peace, respect to adults and children as well as care for others and for nature.  At our school various events such as ‘A Kindness Day and One Daily Action of Random Kindness’, ‘Handicapped People in Society’, ‘Tree Planting Action’, ‘From A Culture of Violence to A Culture of Peace and Care’, ‘Community Service’, ‘Religions and Peace’ are organized in order to achieve these goals.

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?

History is the formation of a thorough attitude towards person’s experience. The formation of a historical memory and a civil position through various subjects and events develops values and improves human relationship. In lessons and during after-school activities it is very important to form human values and preserve a historical memory as there are left fewer and fewer witnesses of the events.

PARTNERSHIPS: What partnerships and networks does your organization participate in, thus strengthening the global movement for a culture of peace?

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)?
