In 1993 the Council for the Parliament of the World's Religions held a conference in Chicago. They asked Dr.Professor Hans Kung to draft a document representing what all the world's religions agreed on. It is called "Toward a Global Ethic: an Initial Declaration. " As a member of the SF Action Coalition for Global Change I was invited to participate in celebrations of the United Nations 50th Anniversary. A colleague suggested I set the text of the Global Ethic document to music. The pieces on the CD "We Declare!" and in the curricula book are those settings.
