THE UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD
The MEDITERRANEAN FOUNDATION, since its creation in 1990 immediately after the fall of the Berlin Wall, has taken as one of its main objectives the establishment of the "UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD": from an intuition of Gustavo Rol.
The activities carried out over the last three decades by the Foundation - particularly in the area of the "Greater Mediterranean" - bear witness to a constant and concrete action that, precisely in these difficult times of war and pandemic, is an anchor of salvation to strengthen the spirit of peace and cooperation between peoples.
The adhesions of men and women, organisations and institutions from various countries contribute to supporting the institutional initiative by pursuing concrete objectives and effective means for the defence of the planet, respect for the fundamental rights of the human person, the coexistence of philosophies, faiths and religions, the fair distribution of goods and resources, the union of science and politics for the salvation of humanity and against all wars.

The students of the various courses at the Istituto Musicale "Margherita di Savoia" in Naples - coordinated among others by Prof. Valentina Crimaldi - performed in the Museum's Peace Library in a beautiful concert dedicated to Ukraine entitled "NEVER AGAIN GUNS...INSTRUMENTS IN MUSIC AGAINST ALL WAR".
Before the concert, the Secretary General of the United States of the World Prof. Michele Capasso made an appeal to the young people by connecting with the city of Odessa and recommending that they act with the three "A's": Listening, Welcoming, Love.
The students were particularly attentive to the original video with the appeal to young people for the "United States of the World" made by Gustavo Rol in January 1987, which Prof. Capasso showed before the concert.
Immediately afterwards, poems by Alda Merini, Izet Sarajlic' and other poets from the Peace Library were read out.
