PeaceNow , in partnership with GAMIP, (the Global Alliance for Ministries &
Infrastructures for Peace), is seeking ONE BILLION people to
join together to create the cultural, economic and governmental
framework for a new era of lasting peace. With the ambitious goal
of uniting ONE BILLION Peace Ambassadors, PeaceNow intends to
generate a transformative force that creates powerful and lasting
change for the betterment of humankind and future generations.
This GAMIP-PeaceNow partnership arose out GAMIP’s showing of
the world premiere of the award-winning film for peace,
Admissions at its 2011 Global Summit in Cape Town, South Africa.
In the fall of 2013, PeaceNow writer/strategist and Admissions
creator John Viscount began working with GAMIP’s Mike Abkin and
Anne Creter to revise and adapt the proposed UN resolution that
Anne, New Zealand’s Operation Peace Through Unity, and others
had earlier drafted for possible adoption by the UN General
Assembly. The result is the “The Global
Resolution for the Establishment of Infrastructures to Support the
Culture of Peace.”
The ONE BILLION signatures PeaceNow collects will be used to
support UN enactment of this resolution.
To further support this campaign, John and the Admissions creative
team created a digital viral platform called an m2ebook to gather
signatures and promote the work of The Global Alliance and
PeaceNow. The “Gift of Peace” m2ebook a is free, 20-page e-book
designed for viral propagation that is easily shared through email
and social media utilizing a simple embedded link. It introduces the
film and the One Billion-signature campaign, explains the need for
Peace Departments and Infrastructures for Peace, and bestows a
free “Gift of Peace” in the form of a free screening of Admissions.
