PIERRE WEIL

THEORETICAL AND/OR PRACTICAL CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE CADIDATE TO THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE ACTIVITIES RELATED TO THE EDUCATION FOR PEACE

Contribution in the field of creative arts

Although Pierre Weil is not a professional artist, his poetic and musical vocation lead him to offer two contributions to the Education for Peace.

1 -The Anthem to Peace in the Human Spirit. On the occasion of the Peace Treaty between Egypt and Israel, Pierre Weil decided to modify a Peace Song from the Middle East, into the UNIPEACE International Anthem. He translated its text into various languages and had it song in all regional and international seminars and congresses. Here are some examples of translations: "La Paix in toi, May Peace be in you, Shalom Alechem, Salam Alecum, OM SHANTI, A Paz em você, La Paz em usted, La Pace em ti, Der Frieden in dich, etc...

2 - The Marseillaise of Peace or The Anthem to the Planet. As his biography explains, Pierre Weil, touched by the creation of the Union of the European Countries, decided to propose a new text for the Marseillaise, attuned with the spirit of european fraternity.

And for this reason, supported by UNESCO, he also wishes to stimulate the change of the national anthems.

3 -Introduction of the Art, in all its forms, into all UNIPEACE programs. Pierre Weil is not satisfied, in terms of art, to give his personal contribution, thus he asks the general college to introduce, in all programs of UNIPEACE, different artistic contributions such as theatre, paintings, sculpture, music, body expression, etc. This is a consequence of Pierre Weil' s transdisciplinary orientation.
