The Assembly was organized by the Charles
Léopold Mayer Foundation for the Progress of Humankind (FPH),
on the initiative of the Alliance
for a Responsible, Plural, and United World. Participants in the
Assembly were to reflect the geocultural, social, and professional
diversity of global society. A process to choose
the participants was defined as early as September 2000 and was
implemented from March to October 2001. The objective was reached:
through the diversity of its participants, the Assembly foreshadowed
a Global Parliament. Most of the participants were not familiar with
the Alliance dynamics. A dialogue with the participants previous to
the Assembly allowed them to prepare for the event.
For four hundred participants to reflect a changing world in all
of its diversity, individual and collective criteria had to be defined
so that each participant would be a true representative of his or
her region or socioprofessional sphere and for there to be a fair
balance between regions and socioprofessional spheres. |
