INVITING CIVIL SOCIETY, MEDIA, CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES, UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS, EDUCATORS and CHILDREN from World Over
at the
4th Global Symposium: Awakening Planetary Consciousness’
December 7-10, 2007        
Lucknow, India
 

Dear Friend,

We take great pleasure in inviting your participation at the 4th Global Symposium 2007: ‘Awakening Planetary Consciousness’ from 7th to 10th December 2007 at Lucknow, India. The details of this conference are available at www.wmgd.net/symposium

The Global Symposium is an annual event that has developed a world wide movement through a global partnership with civil society and educational organizations to establish sustainable development, world unity and world peace. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for many to be proximate with some amazing people, aside from being able to directly help address major issues confronting the world today.

Global Symposium is an internationally recognised civil society conference which alloys a high-standard conference and a diverse intercultural festival in its programme.  The Conference is organized by the World Movement for Global Democracy (WMGD), an initiative of City Montessori School (CMS), Lucknow, India.  Global Symposium 2007 will take place in parallel to the 8th International Conference of Chief Justices of the World (World Judiciary Summit 2007). The reports of previous three Global Symposiums (2004, 2005 and 2006) are available at the official website: www.wmgd.net/symposium

The Purpose of this International gathering, in the first instance, is to strengthen cooperation among the civil society to unite their efforts in world interest and to act and achieve our common goals by:  1) Laying a strong foundation of a nuclear-free, democratic, sustainable, just and peaceful world order by bringing together inter governmental agencies, global leaders, civil society organizations, corporate representatives, media and children and 2) Creating  a widespread awareness about issues like scarcity of safe drinking water, reform of governmental and corporate structures, more equitable distribution of resources, development of renewable energy programs and encourage dialogue to replace international conflict for achieving a breakthrough by creating a sustainable future.

The four major themes of Global Symposium are as follows: 1. Structure of World Democracy & World Parliament, 2. World Religions, Spirituality and Culture 3.  Education, Human Rights, Grass root Movements and Role of Civil Society and 4.  World Peace and Sustainable Development

There is no registration or participation fee. All delegates from abroad will be provided with complimentary boarding and lodging (accommodation and meals) facilities at our guest house along with transport within Lucknow city (Local Transport) from. The delegates are expected to manage their own travel expenses to and from Lucknow city. 

We request all Prospective Participants to fill the attached registration form and send it to us as soon as possible by email or fax.  After you have sent us this registration form, we will send you the visa invitation letter.  

We are determined to think in a long-term strategy so as to realise an international network of civil society, corporate representatives, media, educators and children for securing the future of present generations and those yet to be born. We truly believe that your personal experience and example would give outstanding inspiration for young people to be open, respectful and responsible in their activities and own life.

We are looking forward to your kind reply on our invitation. Please, contact Mr Shishir Srivastava, Organizing Secretary of Global Symposium via email at symposium@wmgd.net or by giving him a ring on his telephone at +91 522 2637219
