Résumé

The Drum Cafe2010 Peace Festival/Conference is an unprecedented social mobilization, advanced by cultural interventions aimed at bringing together thousands of people, pacifist and nonviolence groups, a variety of institutions, and figures from the worlds of science, arts, culture, and politics, who are sensitive to the urgency of the moment It will also awaken a consciousness of nonviolence that rejects not only physical violence, but all forms of violence: economic, racial, psychological, religious, sexual, etc. This new sensibility could take root and inspire the social structures, opening the way towards the future Universal Human Nation.
Our mission is to work towards a cultural intervention in building bridges of love, respect, and understanding around nations by educating and mobilizing our communities in creating a future of peace and justice for all humanity using available media and arts/ cultural methods.
To acknowledge cultural diversity as a driving force of development, not only on respect of growth, but also as a means of leading a more fulfilling intellectual, emotional, moral and spiritual life.
