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.

On the eve of the G20 meeting to be held in Rome on 30 and 31 October 2021, the majority of the States participating in the UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD project - proposed in 1990 by the Fondazione Mediterraneo based on an idea of Gustavo Rol - ratified that the symbol of the UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD will be the TOTEM OF PEACE by the sculptor Mario Molinari from 28 October 2021.
The symbol represents the red sail of the Totem for Peace that configures the stern of a ship made up of the multilingual translation of "The United States of the World".
The ceremony was held at the headquarters of the Fondazione Mediterraneo - Maison de la Paix in the presence of ministers and ambassadors representing the various member countries. The latest member was the State of Kyrgyzstan.
President Michele Capasso, visibly moved by the realization of a dream born 30 years ago, made the choice official in the presence - among others - of the Ambassador of Tunisia in Italy Moez Sinaoui, the Ambassador of Kyrgyzstan in Italy Taalay Bazarbaev, the Tunisian Minister and former Director General of ALECSO Mohamed-El Aziz Ben Achour, the heads of the Forum de l'Académie Politique and the Konrad Adenauer Siftung, the Deputy Mayor of Naples Mia Filippone and representatives of the various countries.
