World Citizenship through Cultural Exchange Programs

Recognizing that the only real disarmament is the outgoing feeling of brotherly love, let such love be nurtured through a continuous expansion of all cultural exchange programs between nations. Let these programs be geared to the youth of the world, and make participation therein, in some form, a part of their required educational curricula.

Establish an international agency to coordinate the free exchange of young people in schools, universities, and working situations throughout the globe. Let students en masse learn to study and work and play together with their counterparts abroad and become, through associations with many types of individuals and surroundings, citizens of the world at home in Paris,Calcutta, Tokyo, Sidney, Buenos Aires, or Los Angeles.

Let such exchanges also take place on professional levels with cooperation in the fields of science and the universal languages of music, art, and good theater. Trends already working in this direction should be reinforced by greater financial assistance from national governments, as well as from private foundations, to give fuller opportunity to millions more who have never ventured beyond their own doorsteps.
