Written by Kashi Nath Pandita: This website has been created for providing an opportunity of discussing human rights issues from more than one perspective (1).
The essential question is: who violates whose rights?
This identification can be clarified – not by attacking one or the other group – but by engaging them in an intellectual and academic debate.
This will help in bringing better awareness of the future direction of international community.
You can freely and fearlessly convey your views and opinions through the medium of this website and thus engage wider sections of civil society in the urgent process of a movement towards more integrated and cooperative humanity.

Hello, I am Heidi, and with this blog I have a dream. I name it World Peoples Website. This title is regarding my vision, my dream, my wish to sustain the developing humanity. The dream is: our humanity is able to recognise itself as an existing, thinking, enjoying, communicating and living entity. This, in my opinion, means giving due importance to the individual person AND the whole humanity.
The vision is: we make the planet of earth a place for a good life for all individuals and the humanity they make. We learn how to manage our contradicting viewpoints and beliefs.
The World Peoples Website is made to sustain what makes US ALL to become Peoples of this whole World. How? With learning by doing. We discuss, exchange, create projects, make it together. One step is to be constantly aware of what others are doing. Individuals at work.

I am 79 years old (in 2015), born in the german speaking part of Switzerland, having been married some times to a french guy, long enough to create four magnific children. These today very grown up individuals are the best result of this time.

Now I live on the 12th floor of a colored city, out of the windows you can contemplate the Jura, a smooth mountain coline between Switzerland and France. Downstairs greening chestnut threes, from the west arrive photogenic clouds and lights. I have time to look around me with some distance. Some of my reflections you can find on my personal blogs in german, french and english, and some of my photos on Heidi’s privat photos.
