A new Earth Charter booklet for teenagers developed in Mexico

A new booklet on the Earth Charter for teenagers was recently published by Fundacion La Planta S.C., and is called “La Carta de la Tierra 40 acciones en torno a la no violencia y paz” (The Earth Charter: 40 Actions on nonviolence and peace) . This publication was developed in collaboration with the Municipality of Morelia and the Education Department of Michoacan State.

This booklet contains the principles of the Earth Charter written in a way that is appealing to teenagers. Fundación La Planta S.C., an Earth Charter endorser since 2005, has been using this version of the Earth Charter in a project called “Promoting a culture of peace using the Earth Charter”, where they organized camps for youth in marginalized communities. 

Find this publication in the Earth Charter Virtual Library.
