    I like the resolution listed below. As an educator, I am grateful that our organization supports the discussion around global issues. Peace can be attained if we build cross cultural connections. Our school has developed a service project with a school in Tanzania. It benefits all the students, and builds bridges for future endeavors and leaders.

    A-9 World Peace
    The WEAC believes that, in order to attain goals that focus on the establishment and maintenance of peace and the understanding of the importance of a global community, specific materials need to be developed for use in school classrooms.

     

    The Council encourages its affiliates to work with other organizations to develop age-appropriate materials for all levels.

    These materials should show the effects of warfare, demonstrate strategies for disarmament, and promote methods to insure a peaceful productive global community.

    The Council further believes that the United States and the world need to take a stand for peace. The development of educational programs is a first step in that direction. 93 (A-9)
