Civil Society Forum for DevelopmentGeneva, 28 June 2007.
Features
Organized by “The Conference of NGO in consultive status with the UN” (CONGO, Geneva, New York and Vienna).
The CSDF Workshop on the Right to Peace discussed the “Luarca Declaration” on the Human Right to Peace, which was adopted by the Spanish Society for the Advancement of International Human Rights Law (AEDIDH) on 30 October 2006 and opened for discussion by civil society in all regions of the world. Numerous colloquia have already been held, including three round tables at the United Nations, accompanied by the formal submission of the text of the Declaration to the fourth session of the Human Rights Council on 15 March 2007. The Luarca Declaration will incorporate the imput of international civil society with a view to adoption of a redrafted final text by the United Nations General Assembly. (See A/HRC/5/NGO/9).
The panel of the CSDF workshop was composed of Professor Alfred de Zayas (USA) of the Geneva School of Diplomacy, Professor Krishna Ahooja Patel (India), Dr. Zeki Ergas (Switzerland) of the Geneva NGO “Millennium Solidarity”, and David Fernandez (Spain) representing the AEDIDH. The international audience included representatives of the 2009 International Conference of NGOs (Australia) and the Foundation for Gaia (Scotland).
