Victoria Visser has posted the 12 principles of peace on her blog

they were originally mentioned by a visionary called Baha’u’llah in the middle of the 19th century – but here is basically what it states :

-Equality of rights for men and women. Until this happens, there is little chance for peace to develop.

-Abandon of all kinds of prejudices; social, racial, … etc.

-Universal education (basic education and instruction for everyone should also enhance greater tolerance and understanding among people.)

-Universal auxiliary language to facilitate global communication and better understanding.

-Strike a balance between science and religion (i.e. science and religion cannot be in contradiction with each other; they are complementary in nature. Like two sides of the same coin; dealing with the material and spiritual aspects of human life. )

-Search for spiritual (ethical) solutions to economical issues to eradicate the extremes of wealth and poverty on earth.

-Create a (true) international tribunal binding to all nations.

-Independent investigation of truth (learn to use and trust your own thinking, which is easier to do when you know how to read and write.

-Religion to become the cause of unity among people as opposed to an excuse for war and strife.

-Accept that all major religions are equal in status and basically stem from the same source.

-Hence all messengers of god are united in essence. However impossible it may be to define the concept of god, there appears to be evidence that the basic moral principles of most religions are complementary in nature and that diffences in the practical precepts are mostly due to historical and environmental contexts. As the world evolves, contexts change. So, why wouldn’t we have to adapt our thinking and behaviour as well?

- logical consequence of the preceding 11 principles would be a condition we might define as World Peace.
