Pax Christi Youth Forum Encourages Your Support of Arms Down! for Shared Security. (03/09/2010)

The Global Youth Network of Religions for Peace is advancing a United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) resolution that asks member states to cut military spending by 10% and redirect those funds toward the achievement of the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

The campaign has 4 million signatures and has a goal of 50 million before October 2010.

At the end of the campaign, the petition will be presented to the United Nations Secretary General and senior Head of States.

To support these efforts, Pax Christi International is disseminating the sign-on letter of the Arms Down! Campaign for Shared Security.

Please consider adding your name to the below petition.
