The
world can no longer afford war. The newly released Global Peace
Index 2026 reveals that we are at a critical point and things are
getting worse. In terms of building peace in the world, the US ranks 134
out of 163 countries in the world. This is the time to encourage young people in the heroic work of
building compassion, justice, and peace in the world.
They
can begin getting to know other young people through participating and/or
presenting in the CFC Global
Youth Conference 2026 - Radical Compassion in Action for Justice
Young
people about 15 to 35 years old are invited to be with about 30 Nobel Peace
Laureates Dec. 2 to 4, 2026, in Rome at the Nobel Peace
Summit and to learn from these ordinary people who grew to do
extraordinary things in the world.
Sister
Martha Ann Kirk now haa s part time job with the Charter for Compassion as the Coordinator of Compassionate
Colleges and Universities Initiatives. The Charter now has a partnership with the
Nobel Peace Laureates Secretariat.
She
is to recruit 30 to 70 young people to be with about 30 Laureates for three
days and learn. We do not have funding for the young people, but we are
giving them what may be a once in a lifetime opportunity of LEARNING FROM
LAUREATES. You can say that this is expensive to go to Rome, but it is
only a tiny fraction of what we are spending and will spend on war. A glimpse
of the cost of war. Things
are getting worse. Global Peace
Index 2026.
Please
contact Sr. Martha Ann will be happy to explain more. Write kirk@uiwtx.edu and a virtual meeting can be
arranged.
