To mark the arrival, at 1 p.m. the international team of marchers will be welcomed at Brooklyn Borough Hall by New Yorkers representing more than 100 cultures, and including children and teachers, religious leaders, organizations, Consuls and city officials. They will march across the Brooklyn Bridge to City Hall where a press conference will be held at 3 p.m.

At 7 p.m. the official welcome of the international team of 25 marchers will be celebrated with a multimedia program of inspirational talks and cultural performances under the theme of “Beyond Violence” at Riverside Church (91 Claremont Street, NYC). The event is open to the public and free of charge.

At 12 noon, on December 1, at Ground Zero, the marchers will participate in a special ceremony to honor the 9/11 victims, decry the violence of the attacks and address the theme of reconciliation as it pertains to achieving peace and nonviolence. The event will be co-sponsored by World without Wars and without Violence, The Community for Human Development, and September Eleventh Families for Peaceful Tomorrows

Paimarire(good peace)!
Kindred Spirits linkin up, is so timely! On behalf of the Waitaha Matriarchs,,,I was honoured to be a part of the "Powhiri"(welcome) into Aotearoa nz; of our 'Core Team', of the 'World March for Peace and NonViolelnce'! And such an even greater honour to mingle with them, in the few days they were with us,,,to know and feel their passion; that we are so 'united'! My most special time was, when they rose, at the marae(our home) early hours of the morning, quickly rushing to catch their flights; while the few of us left behind sent them blessings and good light energy, while a prayer of love was played, thru it all; as our 'Waitaha saying goes; 'there are no goodbyes'; becos We Live Forever!
Now as our hearts&spirts see ahead,,,their journey; which is our journey,,,so too do I wish to see them all again, at the final destinatiion... 'From 'Aotearoa to the Andes'! Our Spirit's willing...So Be It!
Blessings Dear Whanau...for your walk is our walk and the Dream of the Ancestors is made alive in us All! Arohanui always! Kereru!
