The
GENI Initiative connects at The 1998 State of the
World Forum
Dear GENI
Friend,
We have
been honored to participate in The
State of the World Forum (SWF)
for the past four years. World leaders in business,
academia, religion and government convene for a week
to explore solutions to the major global issues. The
GENI Initiative gets stronger every year — as
we brought recent endorsements from: Steve
Donovan, SWF Trustee; Rustom
Roy, science advisor to SWF; and Walter
Cronkite, 1997 SWF keynote address. See attached.
This years
highlights involved personal conversations
(and requests for endorsement) with four people, two
from Australia and two from the U.K.
Richard Butler is the Director of UNSCOM
and former Australian Ambassador to the United Nations
and Gareth Evans is the Deputy Leader of the
Opposition in the Australian Parliament. If you
are an Aussie, why not contact these two statesman
and encourage their support? Joseph Rotblatt
is the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate for the Pugwash
Conferences and Tom Spencer is Chairman of
the Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defense for the
European Parliament, as well as Int'l Chairman of
Global Legislators for a Balanced Environment. If
you have English roots, please contact these two on
our behalf.
On a more
personal note, we recently had a terrific feature
column about GENI's
early days. It's a bit more intimate than the
usual article. To elevate our promotion, we recently
put together the one page Speaker/Author
page on myself seeking presentation opportunities
on The GENI Initiative to all who will listen. Please
share this with any meeting planner, university think
tank, Rotary Club or association executive.
In partnership
for the planet,
Peter Meisen
President
