Global walk for nonviolence to start in NZ

Global walk for nonviolence to start in New Zealand.

New Zealand has been chosen as the start for a global walk for peace and non-violence which will include all seven continents including Antarctica. The walk which will start in October on the anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi’s birthday, hopes to inspire people of all walks of life to promote the abolition of nuclear weapons, end war, and reject violence in their homes, communities, nations and around the world.

“New Zealand is one of the first countries to see the light of the new day,” said Montserrat Prieto, a coordinator of the Global March for Peace and Nonviolence. “And maybe this light has helped inspire New Zealand to lead the world on many issues including granting women the vote, banning nuclear weapons, making peace studies part of the school curriculum, mediating peace in Bougainville and the Solomon Islands, and establishing the position of Minister for Disarmament – so far the only one in the world.”

“New Zealand also has some inspiring examples of non-violence, including those of the Moriori Peace Covenant, the Parihaka non-violent resistance to land acquisition which Gandhi learned from, and the peace flotillas that sailed to Moruroa to stop the nuclear testing. The march will highlight examples like these around the world to demonstrate that non-violence can succeed and that peace is possible.”
