Global Dialogue 2004 is about all of the issues we discussed during
the previous global dialogues plus new issues related to helping humanity
in seeing how important this 21st century is to the survival of all life
on Earth. It is a difficult period of time for it implies the survival
of all lifeforms on Earth for the next million years. The world needs
more understanding, more explanation about what direction we ought to take
as a species, what are our duties as citizens of the Earth, and as the
Global Community.
Workshop Sessions and Discusssion Roundtables will last from August
1 to 31. One of the sites for the Workshop Sessions is in Nanaimo,
British Columbia, Canada. The actual location will be made available at
a later date. Other Workshop Sessions may be organized all over the world.
This Call
for Papers contains all the information needed to submit a
paper to be considered by Global Dialogue 2004.
We welcome proposals for individual papers, presentations, traditional
panel discussions and workshops. We encourage non-traditional formats including
facilitated groups, photographic, poster and dramatic displays dealing
with pertinent themes. We are extending a special invitation to community
groups, community activists and others directly involved in the challenges
of community and home development. Please submit your proposals for individual
papers, panels, workshops or displays using the forms shown in the
Final Program.
Paper topics include all aspects of sustainable development, Earth governance
and management, plus all issues related to the formation of new symbiotical
relationships on Earth and as defined in Issues
2004.
We are asking members of the Earth Community Organization (ECO), the
Global Community, and participants in Global Dialogue 2004,
to submit any of the following work:
* A research paper(s) as per scientific criteria
described in the Call for Papers; your paper is a publication and will
appear in the Proceedings to be published shortly after the conference
in August 2004. Abstracts are now published
in the Final Program.
* Your Vision of Earth in year 2024
* Results of brain-storming exercises on 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 the Global Community 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 already submitted; we want to hear your opinion
and views.
* Positive and constructive actions in sustaining
Earth. These are actions learned from the previous Global Dialogues or
new ones. Participants from all sectors of life will describe and explain
actions that they have performed in their own homes, global communities,
business places or in any other places on the planet.
* Articles for publishing in future 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.
