Dear friends of GNN,
Greetings! I write to congratulate all of you for your sustained encouragement and interest in Global Network for Nonviolence over past few months of its existence. It is due to this support that GNN has become a reality and a guiding force for many of us who believe in nonviolence; to be active and be heard.
As you know, in February three activities were endorsed for 2007. I am glad to share with you that two of the three activities were successfully implemented. The official GNN website www.gn-nonviolence.org is set up, though it is currently undergoing some redevelopment and updating-- check back regularly to see our improvements! Also, numerous GNN members took part in or helped organize activities around the June 5th anniversary in their respective locations. We will be uploading some reports of these events onto the website in near future.
The third and the final activity planned for this year is to observe the International Day of Peace on September 21. As we draw closer to the day, I urge all of you to mark this day in your best possible capacity with a message of nonviolence. In this process, GNN encourages active information exchanges amongst the members. Additionally, if you would like to see some coordination amongst the friends of the network be established for the purpose, please let us know. The Steering Committee will do its best to help you help each other into the meaningful observance of this day. Likewise, your programs can be listed in our website so that more people can learn about it and partcipate.
Lastly, as you prepare to observe the International Day of Peace, I wish you all the best and look forward to hear from you.
best regards,
Sagar Gurung
