ALLIANCE OF CIVILISATIONSAN UN PEACE PROJECT WITH SUPPORT AND

COOPERATION OF PRIME MINISTERS OF SPAIN AND TURKEY

Let's join us to help to build a more peaceful World Society

Kofi Annan 14 July 2005 - Amid concerns that extremists are exploiting the sense

of a widening gap between Islamic and Western societies, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan

today announced the launch of a new initiative, co-sponsored by Spain and Turkey, which aims to

overcome hostile perceptions that sow discord and foment violence.

ALLIANCE OF CIVILISATIONSThe initiative, called "Alliance of Civilizations," is

intended "to respond to the need for a committed effort by the international community - both at the institutional and civil society levels - to bridge divides and overcome

prejudice, misconceptions, misperceptions, and polarization which potentially threaten world peace,"

WE ARE SURE THAT THE 28 MILLION SCOUTS ARE PREPARED TO WALK ALONG THIS LINE, HAND IN

HAND

In general toolkits will consist of informative posters and games to be used with them and ideas on various activities including information about global regional and nation wide competitions and contests with educational value related to

the title of the observance

We need help cooperation for dissemination of these messages to

fellow scouts in the World
