Imagine all the people livin‘ life in peace – John Lennon
Our idea
In times of war and conflict, we need a strong global peace movement. That is why we at Vote For Peace want to organise and regularly repeat a global call for peace. Because the majority of all people want peace and have the right to be heard. With Vote For Peace, we want to give these people a voice and a platform.
And we need peace - perhaps more than ever before. Peace is a value in itself, because peace means life. At the same time, peace is a prerequisite for cooperation between nations and only together can we overcome the major challenges of our time, such as climate change and species extinction.
You may say I’m a dreamer but I’m not the only one – John Lennon
The key to peace
We can overcome all wars on earth if all 8 billion people raise their voices together and demand an end to violence. This is the key to peace! We believe that this force will be so great that it can usher in an era of world peace. All the rules and considerations of Vote For Peace are centred on this one goal.
You’re the voice, try and understand it – make a noise and make it clear – John Farnham
Peace is possible!
Peace in the world is possible for the following reasons:
We are the majority!
The majority of people worldwide want peace! If you ask someone: ‘Do you want peace?’, almost everyone spontaneously says yes. Many also say: ‘Yes, of course, that's what everyone wants!’.
We are the majority and the majority can ALWAYS make a difference! But we have to organise ourselves to do so.
We are globally connected.
Thanks to the internet, almost everyone is connected worldwide today. This means that the peaceful majority can organise globally, speak with one voice and create a large peace movement.
From a technical point of view, nothing stands in the way of a global call for peace.
Many people can achieve a lot.
Many people can achieve a lot if they join forces and speak with one voice. The principle behind this is as old as humanity itself: Alone we are weak, but together we are strong! The more people join forces, the greater the power.
The success of this strategy can be seen regularly in the work of trade unions that represent the interests of their employees. If one person alone demands better working conditions or more pay, the chances of success are lower than if several people join forces and stand up for their interests together.
All people are affected by war.
Everyone around the world feels the effects of war and the threat of war, which is why (almost) everyone has an interest in peace. However, they are affected differently. People in war zones are directly affected by death, violence and destruction. Indirectly, all people worldwide have to bear the consequences of wars. However, this does not only include higher military expenditure. We all also pay with future opportunities. Climate change and species extinction are just two of the current global challenges. In order to overcome these major problems of our time, all nations should actually work hand in hand. But wars and conflicts prevent this urgently needed cooperation. Wars therefore threaten our civilisation in two ways. We need peace, because peace is the most important prerequisite for international cooperation and thus for the protection of our common livelihoods.
You can blow out a candle but you cannot blow out a fire – Peter Gabriel
Our goals
In order to contribute to peace in the world, we have set the following goals for Vote For Peace:
Carry out a global call for peace.
Our goal is to launch a worldwide call for peace and repeat it every year. We believe that in this way we can start a global peace movement and create a strong awareness for peace in the world.
Making the desire for peace visible and strong.
Through the global call for peace, we want to make people's desire for peace visible and strong and bring positive energy into the world. We believe that it makes a big difference whether we remain silent or raise our voices. If we remain silent about the suffering and violence in the world, we make it easy for the perpetrators to continue committing their crimes.
It is difficult to put into words exactly how the effect of this call for peace unfolds. A vote cast for Vote For Peace can perhaps be compared to a smile. It is said that a smile is the shortest distance between two people. A friendly face that you show someone can lead to something new: a nice conversation, a successful collaboration or even a good friendship. But it starts with the magical energy contained in this small gesture. Without it, everything is much more difficult.
For a better coexistence in the world and to overcome violence, we urgently need more of this positive energy. Every voice for peace carries this energy into the world and if many people join in, anything is possible...
Showing solutions and giving courage.
Many people are worried today and look to the future with uncertainty. However, we believe that peace in the world is possible right now. This optimism may come as a surprise, but it is well-founded. After all, the crises and wars of recent years have significantly increased awareness and the willingness to act among many people around the world. Many know that something needs to be done and want to help. They are waiting for solutions. They are involved in their private lives, but often do not know how they can make a meaningful contribution at a higher level. With Vote For Peace, we are making these people a low-threshold offer to contribute something to the big picture. Because the many small contributions are just as important as the few large ones and the global connection we have today give us the opportunity to bring these many small contributions together. We can come closer to peace in the world than ever before. We are not powerless - on the contrary!
It is not our goal to end a war. We want to end all wars.
This could be heaven for everyone – Queen
Our rules
In order to achieve these goals, we have given this project the following rules:
Peace is our only demand.
We want peace! That is our only demand - nothing more and nothing less.
Vote For Peace is neutral.
Vote For Peace is neutral. Vote For Peace takes no position for or against any person, organisation, culture, nation, religion, politics or ideology. If a member of Vote For Peace expresses a different opinion, this is a private opinion.
Neutrality is perhaps our most important rule. Because only as a neutral organisation can we be accepted by all people worldwide and only then can we persuade many people to cast their vote - the key to peace.
In order to maintain neutrality, Vote For Peace does not discuss specific conflicts, e.g. in the comments sections of social networks. However, contributions that deal with the fundamental resolution of wars are expressly welcome.
We ask all people to respect this rule to protect our common interest. Comments that violate this rule will be deleted if this is technically possible.
Vote For Peace is simple.
Vote For Peace is simple and low-threshold, because this is the only way we can reach many people. All it takes to vote is a simple click.
We have deliberately dispensed with prior registration as this would represent a hurdle and discourage people from voting. Any incorrect clicks will be cancelled by resetting the counter at the beginning of the next year.
Everyone is allowed to vote.
Everyone is allowed to vote once a year. Parents may vote for their children as long as they are not yet able to express themselves.
Everyone can upload photos.
Anyone can upload photos to show their face and emphasise their desire for peace.
Uploading group photos and photos of other people is permitted if the persons depicted agree to this.
Photos that contain messages or symbols that are not in line with the neutrality of Vote For Peace will be rejected.
Everyone is allowed to collect votes.
Anyone can collect votes and also vote for other people if they agree.
Participation is voluntary.
Participation is voluntary. No one should be pressured to vote.
Even though this rule is self-evident, we have decided to write it down here. Because only a vote that is cast of one's own free will has any real value. Then this decision is preceded by an inner process that is of the utmost importance for peace. With this rule, we would like to draw attention to this process and promote respect. Because not everyone can make a decision immediately and needs time to reflect and gain confidence.
The voting will be repeated every year.
The vote is repeated every year. This means that the counter is reset to zero at the beginning of the year and everyone is called upon to vote again.
The annual repetition is intended to reinforce the effect of the call. At the same time, any incorrect clicks are corrected by resetting the counter.
All men become brothers – Friedrich Schiller (Ode to Joy)
The power of the voice
Every person can make a big difference with their voice. It therefore makes a big difference whether we remain silent or speak up. Only those who speak up can be heard. Of course, it is sometimes wise to remain silent, but there are also situations in which it is important to break the silence. Silence often protects criminals and allows injustice to continue. Vote For Peace offers everyone a simple way to raise their voice for peace without having to expose themselves or take a stand.
We’re not gonna sit in silence – we’re not gonna live with fear – John Farnham
We the peoples...
...of the United Nations – determinedto save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind...
If everyone demanded peace instead of a new television set, there would be peace. – John Lennon
