Communication (kə-myū'nĭ-kā'shən), n.


The act of communicating; transmission. The exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, as by speech, signals, writing, or behaviour. Interpersonal rapport.

 

We are winning the arguments against war and in favour of peace and sustainability. Publics all over the world are convinced that military solutions represent a contradiction in terms, and that we have to get better at sharing the resources of our planet if humanity is to survive. So why do preparations for violence continue to ratchet up and how come so little is being done to switch course to a greener future? The sheer unresponsiveness of institutional frameworks challenges us to upgrade our communication for peace, before disaster strikes. It’s time to start, in Sydney, 6-10 July 2010.
