Introduction
The project to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Foundation of the
United Nations Organization started in October, 1995. A globe-shaped porcelain
vase named “The Blue Star of Life Ewas donated to the European Headquarters
of the United Nations, viz. Palais des Nations in Geneva, which is still
placed in the lobby adjacent to the room once used for the meeting of the
Conference on Disarmament.
The porcelain globe "The Blue Star of Life" (hereinafter referred
to as TBSL) contains a collection of pebbles from around the world. Since
stone in Japanese is “ishi E phonetically the same as “will Ein Japanese,
these pebbles symbolize “will Eof the world to seek peace and conserve
environment.
Commemorating the 65th Anniversary of the Foundation of the United Nations
in October 2010, the organizing committee of TBSL proposes to hold the
follow-up ceremony so that a younger generation can show their “will Eto
the world.

representatives from East Asia and South East Asia will make statements.

◁EIn this project, student members of the organizing committee will share
a mission to collect the pebbles from their respective countries.
◁EIn the course of ceremony, about eight student representatives chosen
by the committee among the countries in East Asia ,South-East Asia and
U.S. will deliver speeches in front of the globe to renew vows and pleas
about international peace and environmental protection. We are sure that
their strong message will be sent out from the United Nations to every
corner of the world and will help people realize the importance of “World
Peace Eand “Conservation of Environment on Earth Eagain. We also expect
the project to further deepen mutual understanding and international friendship
in the world.
