* Your Vision of Earth in year 2024.
* Results of brain-storming exercises
on issues (see list of all issues).
* The design of an Earth flag;
a campaign to create an Earth flag is going on right now and I call upon
and encourage students from all over the planet to participate in the design
of the Earth flag. It will be their first unified achievement. Children's
education is also part of the theme for this global dialogue. There is
a need to train the next generation in the skills of collaborating in the
future management of global change, which will be vital to survival. Students
of all levels (school, college, technical, university) are invited to participate
in Earth Community projects. They are asked to produce any creative work
of their vision of what Earth Management - all Peoples together
can accomplish ~ in the fields of zoology, biology, on history, on geography,
on social and political sciences, on agriculture, energy, earth sciences,
forestry, communications, wilderness, pollution, on the water supplies
of the world, poverty, employment, social justice, human rights, universal
values, global concepts, business and economy, availability of resources
and so on.
* Comments and recommendations on ideas
proposed so far and on research papers to be submitted; we want to hear
your opinion and views.
* Positive and constructive actions
in sustaining Earth. These are actions learned from the previous Global
Dialogue or new ones. Participants from all sectors of life will describe
and explain actions that they have performed in their own homes, communities,
business places or in any other places on the planet. Depending on whether
we find a sponsor to promote the Global Dialogue we hope to be able to
present your videos, CDs or other productions on our website.
* Articles for publishing in
Newsletters and making them available on the Internet. Newsletters will
be posted on Global Dialogue website. Make
sure you specify that it is an article for the Newsletters and not a research
paper.
As was with previous global dialogues, Global Dialogue 2006 will also have people from all
over the planet participating interactively from their own homes, global communities,
universities or other community sites. The Internet and email will be used
to communicate results and Proceedings. But this time we will also have
a physical site for the Opening and Closing Ceremonies and a period for
summarizing results during August 17-22, 2006.
