Peace Boat's 67th Global Voyage will depart from Japan on July 25 2009, visiting 21 ports on a 106 day route including travelling through both the Suez and Panama Canals.The education and advocacy programmes during the beginning of the voyage will focus on the roots of poverty and efforts currently being undertaken to create a society that is sustainable, both environmentally and economically. Participants will learn, witness and take action on issues of poverty both in the ports they visit along the way as well as in their home countries.
Other key themes of the voyage will be reconciliation and historical recognition and education, as well as alternatives to globalization. Participants will have the opportunity to visit Auschwitz and examine issues of memory, responsibility and reconciliation through the comparative case studies of Europe and Asia; as well as to learn from the example of Latin American economic cooperation and alternative forms of agriculture and economy such as Cuba's organic farming. |
