If someone wants peace I say: Peace is not in the night or sleep.
(The night has nettles hurt him back, for the dream transit spectra.)
  Peace is not the solitary lakes or in the dense forests,
where the winds keep their secrets.
  It is also not (even if you do say) between the graves.
  Peace is not the dead. Neither snow-capped mountains,
or in the deep seas.
Neither the crowd nor the desert.
For the reason that peace does not exist: you have to create within.

The UNESCO Centre Foundation for Human Rights training in World Citizenship and Culture of Peace is a nonprofit organization, established in Curacao, Netherland Antilles, before the Notary Johnny Ronald Edward Kleinmoedig LL.M., registered under No. 119492, working to spread and support the ideals of UNESCO, expressed through its constitution.

The Center works also for creating an awareness of global citizenship at the international level, ie to achieve the world's citizens, capable of building their lives and guide their conduct on the basis of respect for human rights The culture of peace and universal values ​​represented by solidarity, honesty, freedom, respect, which is implicit tolerance, responsibility, fairness and consistency.
The Center understands that effective action in favor of the principles described above, requires action through dissemination tools and training to reach the maximum of people, for it bases its programs on the use of Information and Communication Technologies, and very special in Internet use.

The UNESCO Centre across the world.

Since the founding of the first UNESCO Club in Japan, in 1947, Associations, Schools and UNESCO Clubs are a valuable partner for the organization.
Members of this movement of organized civil society are all volunteers of all ages, nationalities and social classes. They share a commitment to UNESCO's ideals and work to make them a reality on the ground. In this way, they become spokespersons for civil society to those who have the power to make decisions.
