Saturday,
April 27, was the opening of the United World Week in Brasilia, in
the auditorium of the Administration Wansbeck, within the series
“Seminars for Citizenship” organized by the Movement for unity in
politics (MPPU).
Through
theatre and personal experiences, some young people presented the
Youth for a United World, the goal of the United World Week and
United World Project. They stressed that the construction of a united
world begins at home in everyday life through small gestures and so
together we can make big things until we reach Universal Brotherhood,
the realization of the ideal of a united world.
After
sharing various testimonies, from volunteering in NGO’s to small
things carried out at home within the family, the participants were
offered a chance to narrate their own experiences and ask questions.
This created an enthusiasm among the audience with regards the United
World Project and great willingness to work together for a united
world.
Congressman
Izalci Lucas said he was impressed with the youth’s determination
and wanted to collaborate with the Youth for a United World in
whatever way he could. Since one of the youth goals is to transform
the United World Week into an official date of the UN calendar why
not start from “home”, presenting the project to the House of
Representatives to establish a United World Week as an official
celebration in Brazil. Besides, he committed himself to helping and
support whatever may be needed.
Professor
Dinorá Cançado was also impressed with the United World Project and
with the life experiences shared by the Youth for a United World. She
spoke of the various projects that she is working on, for example,
the Braille library, which has already received awards and titles in
the Academies of Arts in Brazil and other countries.
She
also said that she felt as if before there was a sort of gap in her
work, aimed at children and the elderly, and now the gap is narrowing
because “I want to work with young people participating and
disseminating the United World Project.”
The
morning meeting concluded with an invitation to paint a “murales”
on a wall of a public school in a poor community with messages that
convey the fraternity.
