Join the World March for Peace and Nonviolence

‘Because we can end world hunger with 10% of what is spent on arms. Imagine how life would be if 30-50% of the arms budget went toward improving people’s lives instead of being used for destruction.’

This organisation shares some important values with COEXIST, particularly as it rejects all forms of violence and campaigns for the renunciation by governments of the use of war as a means to resolve conflicts.

The World March will cover 90 countries. It starts on October 2nd 2009 and finishes in Argentina on January 2nd 2010 and will be the first time in history an event of this magnitude has been set in motion through the initiative of the people. The true strength of the World March is born from the simple, conscious act of those who endorse this dignified cause and share it with others.

As we go forward our COEXIST membership keeps expanding. We reject nothing and no-one. We will continue to put forward new and refreshing ideas, but the emphasis is changing. Treat all around you with respect and dignity and you will work through anything.
