WFU Home WFU News Nobel Laureate's Speech Begins Theme Year at WFU By Kimberly Griffing Aug. 28, 1998 Wake Forest University will launch the Year of Globalization and Diversity on Sept. 17 with an Opening Convocation address by Oscar Arias Sanchez , former president of Costa Rica and a Nobel Peace Prize recipient. Convocation will begin at 11 a.m. in Wait Chapel. Arias, who led Costa Rica from 1986 to 1990, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1987 for his efforts to establish peace among Costa Rica's neighboring countries. The Year of Globalization and Diversity is a yearlong series of events focusing on the world's development into a global community. The majority of the events during the year-including Opening Convocation-will be free and open to the public. "The world is more interconnected than ever before," said Mary Jane Berman, co-chair of the planning committee. "Political changes, advancements in technology and numerous other factors have led to greater interaction among countries and peoples. Events during the year will help us understand the problems and benefits of these new relationships," said Berman, an associate professor of anthropology and director of Wake Forest's Museum of Anthropology. Berman's co-chair, Thomas C. Taylor, said diversity is an important component of the year because globalization raises awareness about other cultures and societies.

Oscar Arias Sánchez is President and Founder of the Fundación Arias para el Paz y el Progreso Humano. A former President of Costa Rica and the 1987 Nobel Peace Laureate, Oscar Arias holds international stature as a spokesperson for the Third World. Championing such issues as human development, democracy, and demilitarization, he has traveled the globe spreading a message of peace and applying the lessons garnered from the Central American Peace Process to topics of current global debate. He has received many honorary degrees from prestigious education institutions, won several awards from various organizations, and participated in a number of international organizations, many in which he is still actively involved. In 1988, Arias used the monetary award from the Nobel Peace prize to establish the Arias Foundation for Peace and Human Progress. Under the auspices of the Foundation, three programs were established: the Center for Human Progress to promote equal opportunities for women in all sectors of Central American society; the Center for Philanthropy to foster change-oriented philanthropy in Latin America; and the Center for Peace and Reconciliation to work for demilitarization and conflict resolution in the developing world. From these same headquarters, Dr. Arias has continued his pursuit of global peace and human security.

52. Opinion: The Honorable Oscar Arias oscar arias sanchez, 61, Nobel Peace Laureate 1987, is an ambassador for theorganization Future Harvest. He is a former President of Costa Rica. http://www.futureharvest.org/news/arias_opinion.shtml

Original article appearing in Folha de Sao Paulo, Brazil Ecoagriculture 9 December 2001 There is another way. A recent report identifies a new approach emerging around the world, which scientists call "ecoagriculture." Instead of working against each other, farmers and environmentalists work together to find farming methods that both produce more food and preserve the environment. From grazing lands to coffee plantations to rice paddies, farmers and scientists are finding ways to preserve biodiversity within largely agricultural landscapes. As environment ministers continue to meet about Rio + 10, they would be wise to examine this groundbreaking approach to conservation. Common Ground, Common Future, the report points out that the most popular approach to protecting wildlife has been to fence off large areas for preservation where farming is restricted. This approach makes sense at one level, and debt-for-nature swaps were a priority for my administration in Costa Rica. However, research shows that nature reserves alone will not solve the problem, as endangered species and hungry humans often occupy the same land. The effectiveness of reserves depends greatly on whether the uses of surrounding lands support conservation objectives. Moreover, almost half the world's major nature reserves are now being heavily used for agriculture.

It was Arias who brokered a Central American peace deal at a time when no one believed it was possible. Arias served as Costa Rica's president from 1986 to 1990, a turbulent period in Central America. The Sandinistas were battling the Contras in Nicaragua, civil war raged in Guatemala and El Salvador was in turmoil. As tensions on Costa Rica's borders increased, so did pressure to remilitarize the country, which constitutionally abolished its army in 1949. Arias had another approach. Even before his inauguration, he began lobbying the nine leaders of Latin American countries to sit down together and talk about regional issues. In 1987, Arias drafted the Esquipulas II accords, or the "procedure to establish a firm and lasting peace in Central America," and persuaded his fellow heads of state to sign it. It was a peace plan that, according to Arias, Washington insisted would never work. Time has proved Washington wrong. Arias' efforts to carve out a peaceful solution in the region were recognized that same year when he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. He used the proceeds to create the Arias Foundation for Peace and Human Progress. Today, the former president takes a hands-on approach to the foundation's work to demilitarize and democratize Central America and the Caribbean.

Former President of the country (1986-1990) and Nobel Prize (peace, 1987) laureate. His office focused on providing housing for circa 80 thousand families, shifting exportations from so called traditional ones (bananas, coffee) to non-traditional ones (e.g. exotic flowers and fruits), giving more emphasis to tourism as an income source, and achieving political stability in the region of Central America. He called for a higher level of integration in the Central America region and promoted the creation of the Central American Parliament (Parlamento Centroamericano). Ironically, until this day, the only central american country that hasn't yet subscribed to the treaty is Costa Rica. His office has been negatively criticized because of these efforts. Arias also tried to improve the educational system in the country. The most notable action in this respect was the reintroduction of compulsory academic tests at the end of school and high school.

Oscar Arias Sánchez Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1987 Only Peace can Write the New History Desiring peace Peace consists, very largely, in the fact of desiring it with all one's soul. The inhabitants of my small country, Costa Rica, have realized those words by Erasmus. Mine is an unarmed people, whose children have never seen a fighter or a tank or a warship. One of my guests at this award, here with us today, is José Figueres Ferrer, the man with the vision to abolish my country's armed forces in 1948, and thus set our history on a new course. I am a Latin American I am not receiving this prize as Oscar Arias, any more than I am receiving it as the president of my country. While I have not the arrogance to presume to represent anyone, neither do I fear the humility which identifies me with everyone, and with their great causes. I receive it as one of the 400 million Latin Americans who, in the return to liberty, in the exercise of democracy, are seeking the way to overcome so much misery and so much injustice. I come from that Latin America whose face is deeply marked with pain, the record of the exile, torture, imprisonment and death of many of its men and its women. I come from that Latin American region where totalitarian regimes still exist which put the whole of humanity to shame. America's scars The scars by which America is marked are deep. At this very time, America is seeking to return to freedom, and it is only as it approaches democracy that it can see the dreadful trail of torture, banishment and death left by dictators. The problems America has to overcome are enormous. An inheritance from an unjust past has been aggravated by the fatal deeds of tyrants to produce foreign debts, social insensitivity, economic upheavals, corruption and the many other evils of our societies. The evils are manifest, naked to the view of anyone who cares to see them.
