World Movement for World Unity Education
January 21st, 2010Ever since its inception in 1959, the City Montessori School has pursued a comprehensive program of peace education while trying to inculcate global vision in its students. Rather than focussing on Nationalistic values which are fast becoming obsolete in this age of globalization, the school tries to evolve global citizens out of its students who one day might lead this conflict torn world into an era of unity, peace and tranquility for all.
The Founding president of World Movement for World Unity Education and Founder Manager of City Montessori School, Dr Jagdish Gandhi has devoted his whole life in the pursuit of World Unity and Happiness for all. Children are the world’s future. Jagdish Gandhi believes the best way to mould the future is to nurture it. Persuaded by the UNESCO Constitution that wars begin in the minds of men, Dr Gandhi felt it best to build the defenses of peace in the minds of men through education and by nurturing young minds.
Influenced greatly by Mahatma Gandhi, Vinoba Bhave and others, a young and idealistic Jagdish Gandhi ventured in 1959 to create a new mindset through education. With just five children on roll, no personal wealth, and the equivalent of ten US dollars in borrowed capital, the motivated Jagdish began his own personal experiment in Lucknow, India, some fifty years ago in the name of City Montessori School. He saw this as more powerful a vehicle to prevent conflicts than working with negotiations and top-down policies alone.
Today, at the age of 75, Gandhi has no regrets. On the contrary he is still leaving no stone unturned to achieve his goal. He works with the same undiminished zeal towards multiplying his mission for peace and unity through education.
