ニューヒューマニズム・フォーラム・ヨコハマ

Seeking for making 21st century, the century of Peace and Symbiosis by gathering the Peace power against the destruction of the Human species and making the movement to empower the capacity for human existence, we have established on December 2nd in 1972, the voluntary group " Yokohama Peace Movement Association" with the same motivated friendship. Since then, we have established the network with the individual and the associations which engaged in Peace movement for the abolishment of Nuclear Weapon and developed the activities on the Nuclear and Peace issues at the level of our ordinary life.

However, very regrettably to note you that according to the survey of Stockholm Peace Research Institute, almost 20 thousands of Atomic Bomb now exist on our earth and our aim with the atomic contaminated people at the abolishment of this weapon still is not realized. Further more, we have to face the fact that India and Pakistan possess the Nuclear bomb and that US Congress refused to ratify the CTBT and see only the symbolic news which draw our attention to the stagnation of nuclear disarmament.

Even in Japan which is the country devastated by atomic bomb, the opinion of possessing this bomb is raised among the politicians. In this such sever situation surrounding the nuclear weapon, we are seeking the action plan for the abolishment of this weapon and studying the basic idea and philosophy for this purposes.

We see in this process of abolishment of nuclear weapon, not only disarmament but also the very important mission of making new global order by transforming the struggle of supremacy with the law of the jungle into the competition of humanity based on the mutual confidence.

For this purpose, our royal road is that NGO which overcome the national interest for the human interest, get the initiative by reinforcing the mutual relationship to make the new international conciliatory system in the cooperation with the governments willing to reform the actual system and to empower the United Nations.

While we were designing the policy for the above purpose, we encountered the big social change which would back up our recent activities. First, one of this change is the IT revolution and the popularization of Internet make possible the participation in the global peace movement which overcomes the difference of time, place and each individual. And our this anti nuclear network can come to permit small same movements in each region of the world to become a big force Secondary, on December in 1999, the NPO law was established. This law permits the group aiming at the civil movement to be able to get the juridical person relatively easily without funds.

In this occasion of these two big circumstance changes, we YPMA,are now facing the period of outgrowing from pupa to the butterfly. Our butterfly more fortunately than anyone has found the power for the big sky in the humanism surviving in the undercurrent of the human history against the challenge of the history.

This is the new humanism based on the cosmology which respect the human life as the existence same as the big universe and as the most precious. This humanism is the human basic which surpass the difference of race, nation, religion and states. In this occasion, we have established New Humanism Forum Yokohama for the purpose of developing international cooperation and the enforcement of peace and of the contribution for making the world which respect the life based on this humanism.
There is the theory of "butterfly effect" verified by the advanced mathematic. Only one butterfly's one wing can theoretically make a storm to the pposite shore of the strait. This is what this theory realized. One person would possibly change the world. We desire to begin the flapping of the wings to the abolishment of Nuclear Weapon with you who can share the same purpose with us from this New Humanism Forum Yokohama. On May 3rd in 2001
