This week we commemorated the 61st anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and we posted an article about the Every Human Has Rights Campaign.

If you don't know yet who are The Elders: 'The Elders are an independent group of eminent global leaders, brought together by Nelson Mandela, who offer their collective influence and experience to support peace building, help address major causes of human suffering and promote the shared interests of humanity' -More on this page.

We appreciate the work they do, their true and sincere commitment to change the world and provide their knowledge and help where it's needed. The Elders do a lot and we are very proud Max Dana supports them actively with the “60 Signers for the 60th Anniversary” Initiative. They do an amazing work and we should always listen to what The -experienced- Elders have to say...

The Elders is a great organization, they do a lot of work and travel in many countries. But is the efficient? Where are the results? I’m sure they succeed but not everywhere and not with everyone….. :roll:

I am a big admirer of Nelson Mandela and The Elders does an important job discussing with everyone! I am also very proud Max Dana supports them because I never heard of The Elders before her initiative. I am now a big supporters of them from Italia! :P

Did you read the letter they sent to 192 world leaders on climate change? They know how to talk to people and they definitely know what they are talking about!

Climate change is a big issue and I’m afraid Copenhagen won’t change a thing :(

TheElders are LIVE now direct from Jerusalem in discussion with young Israelis and Palestinians

-> The situation in my country is not ‘clear’ and there will not be ‘easy’ solution I can tell you that. I want peace but it must come from both sides… Good luck in the discussions..

Simcha, nothing is easy to do but at least they spend all their energy to help other people and I have a lot of respect for them to do that. They could enjoy their life but they prefer to work everyday for the others.

Respect for The Elders!
