An local event as part of a global protest for peace...-﻿---W﻿e are...Protesting FOR PeaceIn the film Bug&#x27;s Life below we find that the many ants are suppressed by the few Grasshoppers. M﻿any of us want Peace. Some are prepared to fight for it, some to protest, some to support. We are <a href="https://protesting4peace.mystrikingly.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Protesting4Peace</a>M﻿other Theresa herself said she WOULD attend an event FOR Peace. - saying “I was once asked why I don&#x27;t participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I&#x27;ll be there.” ― Mother Teresa

What tools are there that support the achievement of Peace? O﻿ne of the best tools we have seen available is the World Peace Game. It is featured in "World Peace and Other 4th-Grade Achievements". This is a one-hour documentary on John Hunter, a fourth-grade teacher in Charlottesville, Virginia and his students as they participate in Hunter's remarkable educational exercise the World Peace Game. The film has played in festivals around the world, has been broadcast in several countries and was aired to over 85% of the US on public television between 2012-2014. It also supports Hunter's World Peace Game Foundation work, and has had special screenings at the Pentagon, the United Nations, the Aspen Institute's Ideas Festivals,and several universities, educational conferences and schools throughout the world. In October 2022 it opened the week-long 20th Global Peace Film Festival.

I﻿n essence, we are seeking venues and partners ( schools, companies, organisations ) to run a local session or more of the film here <a href="https://vimeo.com/ondemand/60062/151550332" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://vimeo.com/ondemand/60062/151550332</a> W﻿e are proposing to <a href="https://vimeo.com/ondemand/60062/151550332" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">list the events in a format similar to this</a>You can hear more from John in the interview <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKIdMJbC3i8" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>, where he is interviewed about the game and his <a href="https://www.amazon.com/World-Peace-Other-4th-Grade-Achievements/dp/0547905599/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1349185655&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=world+peace+and+other+4th+grade+achievements" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">book</a>. the Sinai and to establish normalTranscript:-0:00this is a CBS News special report from0:03Washington here is Walter Cronkite they decided we should have this in the0:05good evening the Smitty summit at Camp0:08David is over and Israel and Egypt have0:11agreed to two documents taking a giant0:13step toward achieving peace in their0:15troubled corner of the world Israel has0:17 educator has written a book it&#x27;s calledagreed to end its military government on0:20the west bank of the Jordan River and to0:22permit Palestinians self-rule there0:24within five years and to the Gulf from0:26the Sinai and to establish normal0:29relations with Egypt that historic0:32moment in 1978 inspired a Virginia0:35fourth grade teacher he decided to teach0:37his students about global conflict John0:40Hunter created the w w it&#x27;s a0:41a hands-on exercise kids have given the0:44 3:54chance to resolve disputes now the0:46educator has written a book it&#x27;s called0:47world peace and other fourth-grade0:49achievements welcome thank you thank you0:51all tell us about how this world peace0:54game works and what you hope will come0:57out of it oh my gosh you know it&#x27;s a0:59four foot by four foot by four foot1:01plexiglass tower it towers over my nine1:04year olds and they&#x27;re charged with1:06solving 50 of the world&#x27;s most difficult1:08problems that are interlocked and they1:10have to do it without combat if possible1:11these nine year olds read sins is the1:14art of war to get a primer for that sort1:16of experience and hopefully they&#x27;re1:18trying to develop critical and creative1:19thinking skills that can really make a1:21difference for all of us in the future1:23well when why do you choose that book1:25the art of war you have a whole theory1:27 she reads this1:34every night mister I think we should use1:36it in the game so we discussed it and1:38they decided we should have this in the1:40of their pets they seem to be a little4:10nicer to their siblings like that yeah4:12they&#x27;re a little bit more critical about4:13issues that concern us all they&#x27;re more4:16delighted and interested about helping4:18you doing good work it&#x27;s called world4:21peace and other four great achievements4:23it&#x27;s on sale now
