Friendship Activities in Tokyo to Raise Awareness of Johannesburg
Summit Issues
Dear
Friends,
We
are the NGO Global Village, founded in Tokyo in 1991. Global Village
is a Non-Governmental Organisation campaigning on majority world
and environmental issues, and supporting environmental and social
welfare projects in the majority world. Global Village helps artisans
and farmers help themselves and protect their environment.
As
the Johannesburg Summit is fast approaching, our group has been
trying to find activities in Tokyo that will support the NGO movement
at the Summit and raise awareness of the basic ideals of sustainability
and peace.
We
would really like to help organise an event during the Summit, so
that the Tokyo community can have a voice in support of the steps
necessary for global peace and sustainability.
We
are presently planning a gathering and march on August 31 (Saturday).
We will be meeting in Miyashita Park, Shibuya, Tokyo, from noon
to make placards (create a voice workshop), and will begin the march
at 1pm, to reassemble in another park for information sharing and
street theatre until 3pm. repare a speech, street theatre, etc.
to share with others.
A member
of the NGO Peace Boat's delegation to the Summit has agreed to report
to us on the activities in Johannesburg and possibly relay information
about our actions to people there.
Would
you be interested in working together to make such an event happen?
Please contact us by email, fax, or telephone for more information
or to find out how to take part.
Thank
you and best wishes,
Friends
