My mayor is a member of Mayors for Peace.

Once a mayor is member of Mayors for Peace there are many things he/she can do:

1. Membership drive

Your mayor can invite colleagues who have not joined the network to do so now. This is a high priority towards the 25th anniversary of the Mayors for Peace.

For getting results nationally we recommend to use the model of having a group of mayors from several political parties sending a common letter attached to a letter from the mayor of Hiroshima.

25th Anniversary Membership Drive

2. Vote a resolution to support the work of Mayors for Peace financially.

The cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have carried the financial responsibility for Mayors for Peace for the past 25 years. Let's demonstrate our solidarity.

An increasing number of Belgian City Councils Mayors have adopted city resolutions to financially contribute to the success of the 2020 campaign. Plans are underway in other countries such as France, Germany, Italy, UK and USA. You can find the draft of this resolution

3. Twenty other ideas in a Campaign Kit

In June 2006 the City of Ypres (Belgium) and the NGO Friends of the Earth (previously For Mother Earth) produced a campaign kit with 20 very practical proposals how mayors and civil society can get involved. Through communications, education, common activities and political work
