World Peace March Ireland

Along with many other humanitarians and spiritual leaders, Amma has endorsed the World March for Peace and Non-Violence. This is the first ever World March that will travel the world asking for the end of wars, the dismantling of nuclear weapons and for an end to all forms of violence (physical, economic, racial, religious, cultural, sexual and psychological).
The March starts Oct 2nd in New Zealand - that's the anniversary of Gandhi's birth and as such, is International Day of Non-Violence - and ends January 2nd 2010 in Argentina.
Already, all sorts of great, locally-organised events are happening across the globe to help create a new, non-violent global consciousness. See www.theworldmarch.org to get an idea of the range of organisations and individuals supporting the World March, and find out what they're doing.

World March Ireland is the organising group here and they're putting wonderful energy, heart and faith into this venture. Amma Ireland has become a registered member with them, and we went along to support the Hiroshima Day event they held August 8th at the Kilkenny Peace Park. No pics I'm afraid (remember to bring your cameras, guys!!!) but have a look below at a video of the launch event they held in Kilkenny last March. We didn't know about the March yet at that stage so we weren't there but we're really encouraging everyone to go along to all future Peace March events in Ireland!
