There are many other ways that those who endorse the Earth Charter can help to advance the objectives of the Earth Charter Initiative. The Earth Charter Initiative encourages all those who support the Earth Charter to endorse the document. However, some individuals and organizations may wish to use the Earth Charter Endorsement Statement available in this website. It may be completed and sent on the web or by sending it to the Earth Charter Secretariat by e-mail or by fax. Many groups and organizations have endorsed the Earth Charter and are using it.
Endorsements build support for the Earth Charter movement and social change.
We commit our organization to the realization of its aims. We will seek to apply its principles in our programs, policies and other activities. The Third Special Assembly of the Amazonian Parliament, which was held in Lima, Peru, passed a resolution in July 2000 endorsing the Earth Charter and supporting endorsement by the United Nations General Assembly. The support of these groups representing the inhabitants of the Arctic is especially significant since their representatives were concerned with the wording of certain principles in early drafts of the Charter. Their concerns, however, were addressed, and they are now actively engaged in promoting the document.
