The Global Silent Minute brings us together as a global community, participating in One Minute for One Humanity at the exact same time calibrated to 4:00pm New York and 9:00pm London on December 21; and 8:00am Sydney and 2:30am Darjeeling on December 22. 

In this minute — the same minute everywhere — we will consciously cooperate in Silence with the millions on the other side of the veil to generate a reservoir of collective power that will be harnessed to create a better world for all.

The Global Silent Minute takes its inspiration from the Silent Minute introduced by Wellesley Tudor Pole in WWII.

This initiative emerged when three groups: Cygnet Centre for Peacebuilding, Sydney Goodwill Unit of Service, and The Hill Center USA were inspired by the power, simplicity, and universality of the WWII Silent Minute. Over time they were joined by The Shift Network and numerous organizations to invite citizens everywhere to participate in a Global Silent Minute dedicated to providing an opportunity for global cooperation in our role as custodians of the planet.

Simply by ringing a bell and observing a minute of silence calibrated to 9:00pm London GMT/UTC on December 21.

Yes! Participate by observing a minute of silence daily at 9.00pm GMT/UTC to contribute to the global rhythm of cooperating with others around the world and across the veil.

You also can assist by inviting family, friends, colleagues, and community members to participate in the daily Global Silent Minute. Please distribute the flyer, FAQs, video clips, and bookmarks, and share the Facebook event using #globalsilentminute.

There are flyers, bookmarks, videos, and other resources you can share with others.
