The main objectives are:

• Continue to create awareness that only through 'peace' and 'non-violence' will the human species open up its future.
• To make visible the various positive actions that people, communities and peoples are developing in numerous places in the direction of the application of human rights, non-discrimination, cooperation, peaceful coexistence and non-aggression.
• Giving voice to the new generations who want to take over and make their mark by installing the culture of non-violence in the collective imagination, in education, in politics, in society...

In the same way that ecological awareness has been installed in just a few years.
The central issues to be addressed are:

• The prohibition of nuclear weapons. Proportional disarmament and the renunciation of states to use war to resolve conflicts or to appropriate resources. "We are determined to avoid wars for future generations".
• The re-founding of the United Nations, including the addition to the Security Council of an Environmental Security Council and a Socio-Economic Security Council. "United Nations watching over all citizens of the planet".
• The creation of conditions for a fully sustainable planet, taking into account the fact that this is a limited space that we absolutely must take care of. "Earth is everyone's home".
• The integration of regions and areas with socio-economic systems in order to ensure well-being and resources for all, with the goal of eliminating world hunger in the next 10 years. "We want to eliminate hunger in human history".

The United States of the World says "No" to discrimination of any kind: gender, age, race, religion, economy, etc. "No human being above another". Nonviolence as a new culture and active nonviolence as a methodology of action. "Nonviolence is the force that transforms the world".
