Description:
The first World Peace Forum took place in 2007 to bring together professionals from all walks of life in order to exchange ideas and find ways to help promote the peace effort undertaken by so many individual activists as well as smaller and larger organisations throughout the world.The World Peace Forum has become a platform for best practice exchange and a market place for peacemakers. Once a year a growing number of peacemakers are invited to present their projects and ideas, their efforts and ways to build a more peaceful world.A small, yet international group of scholars, researchers, artists, politicians and citizens from around the world organised an initial conference in Schengen, Luxembourg in 2006. From this small event the World Peace Forum has developed into a global platform for peace activists and initiatives. Each year is given a particular theme for discussion, these have included Conflict Resolution, Connecting Peace-Makers and Women, Stability & Peace. The Luxembourg Peace Prize was also initiated in 2012 to award outstanding peace-makers.The 2015 edition of the World Peace Forum will take place in Baia Mare, Romania with the theme Finding Common Global Values from the 7-10th of May. There will also be a Youth World Peace Forum that will take place in Cairo, Egypt from 4-6th of May 2015.

    In 1970, Alexander Solzhenitsyn was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature. The following year, three years before his expulsion from the Soviet Union, he wrote, but was never able to deliver, his Nobel Lecture. It is widely acclaimed as one of the most significant statements of the last century. Based on Solzhenitsyns lecture, the film One Word of Truth dramatitises contemporary issues such as the differing scales of values in the world, the link between violence and lies, the relevance and power of art and literature, and the crucial role of the individual.

  • Our HostThe Memorial of the Victims of Communism and of the Resistance

    In the former Prison of the Ministers in Sigheu Marmatiei, the Memorial of the Victims of Communism and anticommunist Resistance comprises a Museum and an International Study Centre. The Memorial was established as a reminder of the atrocities committed by the communist regime - for years the populace had been brain-washed to create the so-called New Man through the rewriting of history and poisoning the memories of generations. Moral and civic values could only be recovered if the collective consciousness is duly recuperated. Sighet prison was chosen because it was the first of many political prisons set up in Stalinist times and because it was where the countrys political, spiritual and cultural elite of the pre-war democracy was exterminated. An International Study Centre was established here because out of all of the former communist countries, Romanias experience had been the longest and most painful - from the long years of suppressed resistance to Ceausescus obscene Golden Epoch.
