UMS'nJIP is
signatory of The Jena Declaration (TJD).
TJD includes many UNESCO Chairs,
relevant international organizations
and academies of sciences, arts
organizations and networks, business
companies, civil societies movements
as well as individuals and follows the
following principles: Meaningful,
sustainable change can only be achieved
if every person on the planet
changes their everyday
routines, practices, and mindset.
This must be true in business,
government, school, and at
home. Individually and
collectively, we must decide to live our
lives in a deeply sustainable
way. Solutions must grow strong from
the bottom up – created and acted
upon by individuals and communities.
The collective power of
many local solutions brings a
positive global change. To change ways
of life for sustainable futures
requires creative solutions. It
calls for innovation from the arts,
the humanities and the minds
of civil society. The future
requires learning from one another. We
all require information and
training in order to learn, and to
define their own individual roles
in designing the future. Young people
must get a strong voice — adults
cannot envision a different
future nearly as skillfully as
children and teenagers. TJD is an
invitation to make sustainable
change happen at your own
doorstep, to mobilize people around the
planet and to enable fruitful
outcomes of their engagement! More about TJD |
