Hello everyone, this is a summary of the European Union made on 12.11.2008 chat .... anyone interested can participate
Present at the Chat:
Italy: Lawrence, Paul, Claudia, Dominic, Francis, Michael
Hungary: Magor
Spain: Clara
the European Forum have proposed the creation of a joint European youth movement and nonviolent. A movement that wants to create a non-violent consciousness among young people across Europe.
See how to connect this to the World March for Peace and Nonviolence
We told how this proposal was welcomed by young people with whom we have contact.
Magor: The next week begins a campaign of meetings with young people to talk about nonviolence and the World March. The boys say that this thing is very interesting, because in Hungary things go badly enough: there is violence among young people, economic crisis, violence in schools ... and also is back in fashion there is racism and patriotism towards the Jews, and all this violence is growing today.
Clara: is thinking about what can be arranged. The whole system is not violent and young people are dedicated to nonviolence. He has no ideas on what to do.
Lorenzo in Italy and especially in Florence there is a great ferment among the young. The government passed a law that proposes cuts to public education and this has created a non-violent struggle that has gone from high school students and then has involved the universities, parents and teachers. We do not work directly with all these, but there are others of the Humanist Movement who are into this thing. We talked to the guys at 2 high schools on the theme of the European youth movement and I am very concerned. Mailing list
Magor has created a mailing list for those who interested in the topic of the youth movement europeoche-called new-loving generation.
Who wants to join should send an email to Magor
is suggested that all links should send photos and video of the activities
Forum Web
Magor through his contact is to create a European web forum so that everyone can use.
Proposed Action
-First of all continue to talk about this to young people in the countries where we are.
-In every country is preparing an open letter where he describes the situation of young people (school, work, violence, nonviolence, etc.) and send to the mailing list.
These letters circulated among young people of all countries, so that everyone in Europe know the situation of young Europeans.
Another idea is to send letters to the embassies of several countries to protest what is happening in the country corresponding to the embassy. For example, in Hungary is sent a letter to the Italian embassy denouncing the abuses of the Italian government to young people. Magor ven proposes to protests outside the embassies
Forum generations
As decided at the European Forum, 25-26 April 2009 in Budapest will be the forum of the new generations.
In this respect, Lawrence received an email from Monica who is the head of non-discrimination to the European forum. They also make a forum in Budapest and we proposed to do this together. Each expressed his opinion on the subject, but we were told to arrive at the next chat each with its own idea and then interscambierà
-Magor says that the proposal has been greeted with much joy by children in Hungary. Next chat
The next chat will be Tuesday, December 2 at 18:30 always on yahoo messenger. We decided this time because it allows some children to be present to chat.
