Peace Boat`s 66th Global Voyage for Peace, departing on April 23 2009, will travel through Asia and the Indian Ocean, before heading through Northern Europe and returning to Japan on August 6 via Central and Northern America.
This voyage will feature Peace Boat's first extensive visit to Scandinavia, including the first time ports of Stockholm and Helsinki. Sustainability will be the keyword of this voyage, with on board and in port programmes focusing on various related themes.
Learning about northern European welfare and education systems will provide an opportunity to reconsider the true meaning of a “rich” society – going beyond economic wealth and efficiency, and instead focusing on the wellbeing of humans and the environment alike. Examples of natural conservation and environmentally-friendly economic policies around the world will be explored, as participants on this journey reconsider how to make our lifestyles and policies truly sustainable. |
