Each school should take great pride in being represented by such well-rounded young men who will undoubtedly go on to do great things in life."

Five World Congresses of Global Civilization




The First Word Congress of Global Civilization
July 16-18, 2001 / Sydney, Australia
The First World Congress of Global Civilization was held from July 16 - 18, 2001 at Hilton Hotel Sydney, Australia. Fifty delegates and thirty invited guests from 37 countries attended the conference. These scientists, philosophers, scholars and government officials discussed and debated the necessity of a global civilization spirit, how to cultivate it and how to manage the relations between a global civilization, local cultures and regional civilizations. It was a conference of seeking an overall theoretical answer to where is humanity going in this global world. The Declaration of Global Civilization with the principles of “All matter in the universe shares one origin; all humankind shares one nature; all beliefs share one divinity; all share one essence” as its framework, was passed overwhelmingly and adopted in the conference as OPGC’s theory guidance.
