Vigil instead of Easter march: Peace initiative in Miesbach calls for negotiations instead of war. 50 participants – a little less than expected, says co-organizer Hermann Kraus.

14 associations and unions, some of them newly involved, were behind the campaign this year; last year there were 22. It has not yet been decided whether the new format of the initiative should be retained next year, says Kraus, but at least the number of sponsoring organizers suggests a future for the initiative.
