We take great pleasure in inviting your participation at the 4th Global Symposium 2007: ‘Awakening Planetary Consciousness’ from 7th to 10th December 2007 at Lucknow, India. The details of this conference are available at www.wmgd.net/symposium
The Global Symposium is an annual event that has developed a world wide movement through a global partnership with civil society and educational organizations to establish sustainable development, world unity and world peace. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for many to be proximate with some amazing people, aside from being able to directly help address major issues confronting the world today.
Global Symposium is an internationally recognised civil society conference which alloys a high-standard conference and a diverse intercultural festival in its programme. The Conference is organized by the World Movement for Global Democracy (WMGD), an initiative of City Montessori School, Lucknow, India. Mr Jagdish Gandhi, President, World Movement for Global Democracy (WMGD) is the Convener of the Conference. Global Symposium 2007 will take place in parallel to the 8th International Conference of Chief Justices of the World (World Judiciary Summit 2007). The reports of previous three Global Symposiums (2004, 2005 and 2006) are available at the official website: www.wmgd.net/symposium
The Purpose of this International gathering, in the first instance, is to strengthen cooperation among the civil society to unite their efforts in world interest and to act and achieve our common goals by: 1) Laying a strong foundation of a nuclear-free, democratic, sustainable, just and peaceful world order by bringing together inter governmental agencies, global leaders, civil society organizations, corporate representatives, media and children and 2) Creating a widespread awareness about issues like scarcity of safe drinking water, reform of governmental and corporate structures, more equitable distribution of resources, development of renewable energy programs and encourage dialogue to replace international conflict for achieving a breakthrough by creating a sustainable future.
The four major themes of Global Symposium are as follows: 1. Structure of World Democracy & World Parliament, 2. World Religions, Spirituality and Culture 3. Education, Human Rights, Grass root Movements and Role of Civil Society and 4. World Peace and Sustainable Development
