Dear Friend,

Greetings!

1) Global Symposium — Second phase of registration opens! (Registration form attached)

We are pleased to inform you that 230 participants from 65 countries have confirmed their participation for the Global Symposium: 'Towards a New World Order' (www.cmseducation.org/symposium) taking place from 10-14 December 2005 at Lucknow, India.

Nobel Laureate Hon. Prof. Wangari Mathai has conveyed that she highly appreciates the spirit of the Global Symposium and is considering to inaugurate the Global Symposium.

As you might be aware that Global Symposium is inspired by the book "You can Change the World" by Prof Ervin Laszlo, Founder-President, Club of Budapest; the Symposium therefore provides a unique opportunity to clearly examine the causes behind the threats the planet is facing today – from global terrorism to global warming – in order to discover real solutions at all levels — social, scientific and spiritual.

We therefore cordially invite you to contribute your innovative ideas and experiences to articulate a vision for the future that recognizes the fundamental interdependence of humanity and suggests ways to move forward for a New World Order.

The online registration has closed on 15 September 2005 but we are still receiving requests for participation. Therefore, we have decided to keep the registration open through the attached registration form. Please send it to the email ids mentioned in the registration form. More details will be informed after receiving the registration form.

If you have already registered online on or before 15 September 2005, please do not

Children from world over will present an appeal to the World Judiciary at the 6th International Conference of Chief Justices. This will be the most important and touching experience for all. Children are encouraged to prepare their appeal in their own words. Appeal should be limited to 250 words and two minutes per child. You are also invited to send a one or two member delegation of children between 8 to 17 years of age for the 6th International Conference of Chief Justices of the World and the Global Symposium.
