Celebrating the arrival of
The Age of Global Non-Violence!
We invite you to join the Australian Leg of the World-March for Peace and Non-Violence. An historical event which will turn the world into a celebration of magnificent proportions: the quest to create a new global consciousness around peace and non-violence that calls for the dismantling of nuclear arms, an end to war as a means of resolving conflict, and a universal rejection of all forms of violence (physical, economic, racial, sexual, and psychological, etc.).

The World March will begin in New Zealand on October 2, 2009, the anniversary of Gandhi’s birth, declared the "International Day of Nonviolence" by the United Nations. It will conclude in the Andes Mountains (Punta de Vacas, Aconcagua, Argentina) on January 2, 2010. The March will last 90 days, three long months of travel. It will pass through all climates and seasons, from the hot summer of the tropics and the deserts, to the winter of Siberia. A permanent base of a hundred people of different nationalities will complete the journey. The March will arrive in Australia (Sydney) on October the 3rd, stay one full day on the 4th and leave on the 5th towards Manila, The Philippines.
