This 'discussion page' is currently used to hold notes for the development of this website (however it can still be used for discussion)

There are some great projects happening already to help prepare for this. The Long Now Foundation exists specifically to help focus our attention on the long term.

Peace

  • Understanding
    • Other viewpoints, cultures, perspectives
    • Understanding benefits of co-operation
  • Tolerance
  • Education
  • Empathy
  • Cross-border collaborations
  • Generosity
  • Forgiveness
  • Leading by example

All this is helped by right education - an education that opens the mind to other viewpoints rather than installing a rigid view of what's right.
