Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed it is the only thing that ever has.

WDEF Philosophy
Genuine peace must be the product of many nations, the sum of many acts. It must be dynamic, not static, changing to meet the challenge of each new generation. For peace is a process a way of solving problems.

The Banner of Peace Through Culture

Dating from antiquity, the sign of the triad is found all over the world as a heroic symbol of past, present and future or as religion, science and art enclosed in the ring of eternity.

Continuing the Legacy of Cultural Leadership

What is the meaning of culture?
The word culture is derived from cult and ur. Cult means cultivation. Ur is an ancient Chaldean term meaning light the creative aspect of the universe. Hence, culture is literally the cultivation of creativity. There is nothing higher than creativeness, and there is no greater joy. Therefore create and rejoice! Be daring in creative ight. Create courageously! Let thought undistorted and unrestricted be impressed in your being. Let it be free from the shadow of the censors scalpel. Be true to yourself because there is nothing higher than creativeness.

All we are is what we are to each other.

The future is not a result of choices among alternative paths offered by the present, but a place that is created, created in mind and will, created next in activity. The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating. The paths to it are not found but made, and the activity of making them change both the makers and the destination.
John Scharr
