[GMW #2197] Publish Statistics Of Employment In Peace Service - Peace Professions In World & National Statistics

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500

~ Idea 1484 ~ 3 August 1998

I wish that UNESCO or the International Labor Organization would begin to publish statistics of employment in peace service.

I have signaled that there is only one world servant per 100,000 inhabitants of the planet, compared with 556 militaries.

When I returned from the French Resistance after World War II my father asked me what I wanted to do with my life.

I answered: work for peace so that my children and grandchildren will not see the horrors I saw in this war.

He shrugged his shoulders and said: "There are no peace jobs in this world. You can forget it."

Well, fate and a good essay on world government opened to me the doors of the United Nations and an entire adult life devoted to peace.

I think the time has come to have more peace professions and jobs at all levels of society. It should be a new category in world and national employment statistics.
