INVITATION TO A PEACE SYMPOSIUM
At Anglesey (Mona) - August 6, 2006
BRITISH-IRISH PEACE SYMPOSIUM on
Ending The Wars, Making The DEEP Peace
And announcing the formation of an
ECO-COUNCIL OF THE ISLES
This gathering is open to all whom have the long
term interests of peacemaking in Britain and Ireland, and particularly
the ending of the long conflicts in Ireland at heart. It is
being held in Anglesey to make it possible for participants
to come both from Ireland as well as through the British Isles.
Mona was sacred to the ancient Druid orders, who formed the
educated intelligentsia of both Britain and Ireland in former
times, and whose work was specifically involved with mediation,
peacemaking and the giving of justice. Among other participants
we hope a number of Druids from contemporary Druid orders in
both Ireland and Britain will be in attendance.
With the peace process in Ireland having moved so far, it is
the hope of this symposium to encourage a healthy debate between
both Irish and British peace thinkers, activists and spiritual
leaders, so as to vision together a long future for both Britain
and Ireland.
We also intend to launch at this gathering a new body, an Eco-Council
for the Isles, which will serve as a forum for representation
of all those interested in the ecology of the British isles:
with seabirds dying off our shores, fishes depleted, and global
warming effecting our weather patterns, we have an increasing
ecological responsibility to end our conflicts and feuds, and
pursue ways of peace, justice and harmony.
All those who have thought for the long term sustainability
of our environment, who love and care for this magical part
of the world, and who have the protection of our sacred sites
at heart, and who have specific news of environmental issues
and campaigns in their part of the world, are invited to attend
or send representatives.
Hosting the meeting is Dr Thomas Daffern, Peace Officer of the
Council of British Druids, and Governor of the Saor Ollscoil
na hEireann (Free University of Ireland); Director of
the International Institute of Peace Studies and Global Philosophy
and founder of the Global Green University.
