In 1996, the UN General Assembly (by resolution 51/95) invited UN Member States to observe the International Day for Tolerance on 16 November, with activities directed towards both educational establishments and the wider public.

This action followed on the United Nations Year for Tolerance, 1995, proclaimed by the UN General Assembly in 1993 at the initiative of UNESCO, as outlined in the Declaration of Principles on Tolerance and Follow-up Plan of Action for the Year.

The 2005 World Summit Outcome document (A/RES/60/1) furthered the commitment of Heads of State and Government to advance human welfare, freedom and progress everywhere, as well as to encourage tolerance, respect, dialogue and cooperation among different cultures, civilizations and peoples.

A SPECIAL CALL 5G12ITD (INTERNATIONAL TOLERANCE DAY) will be activated from Morocco starting on 11/16/2012 to 12/16/2012 in all bands and all mods.

Chaque année le 16 novembre, la communauté internationale célèbre la Journée internationale de la tolérance avec des activités qui s'adressent à la fois aux établissements d'enseignement et au grand public.

L’Assemblée générale a instauré cette journée par sa résolution 51/95 du 12 décembre 1996, faisant suite à l'Année 1995 pour la tolérance proclamée par l'Assemblée générale des Nations Unies à l'initiative de la Déclaration de principes sur la tolérance de l’UNESCO adoptée en 1995.

Dans le document final du Sommet mondial de 2005, les chefs d'États et de Gouvernements s'engagent à élargir partout le bien-être humain, la liberté et le progrès, et à encourager la tolérance, le respect, le dialogue et la coopération entre les différentes cultures, civilisations et populations.

Un indicatif spécial 5G12ITD sera activé par les radioamateurs marocains dans le cadre de journée international pour la tolérance, cet indicatif sera actif toutes bandes tous modes depuis le 16/11/2012 au 16/12/2012.

توجز وثيقة نتائج مؤتمر القمة العالمي لعام 2005 (A/RES/60/1 (ملف بصيغة الـ PDF) ، التزام الدول الأعضاء والحكومات بالعمل على النهوض برفاه الإنسان وحريته وتقدمه في كل مكان ، وتشجيع التسامح والاحترام والحوار والتعاون فيما بين مختلف الثقافات والحضارات والشعوب.

Morocco (Arabicالمغرب‎ al-Maghrib ; Berberⴰⵎⵕⵕⵓⴽ or ⵍⵎⴰⵖⵔⵉⴱ[7] Ameṛṛuk or LmaġribFrenchMaroc), officially the Kingdom of Morocco,[2] is a country located in North Africa. It has a population of over 32 million and an area of 446,550 km² (710,850 km² with Western Sahara). Morocco also administers most of the disputed region of the Western Sahara as the Southern Provinces. Morocco remains the only African state not to be a member of the African Union due to its unilateral withdrawal on November 12, 1984 over the admission of theSahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) in 1982 by the African Union as a full member without the organization of a referendum of self-determination in the disputed territory of Western Sahara. Arabic name al-Mamlakat al-Maghribiyyah (المملكة المغربية) translates to "The Western Kingdom". Al-Maghrib (المغرب), meaning "The West", is commonly used. For historical references, medieval Arab historians and geographers used to refer to Morocco as al-Maghrib al-Aqṣá (المغرب الأقصى, "The Farthest West"), disambiguating it from neighboring historical regions called al-Maghrib al-Awsaṭ (المغرب الأوسط, "The Middle West", Algeria) and al-Maghrib al-Adná (المغرب الأدنى, "The Nearest West", Tunisia).[6]
Morocco is a constitutional monarchy with an elected parliament. The King of Morocco holds vast executive and legislative powers, including the power to dissolve the parliament. Executive power is exercised by the governmentbut the king's decisions usually override those of the government if there is a contradiction. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of parliament, the Assembly of Representatives and theAssembly of Councillors. The king can also issue decrees called dahirs which have the force of law. The latestParliamentary elections were held on November 25, 2011, and were considered by some neutral observers to be mostly free and fair. Voter turnout in these elections was estimated to be 43% of registered voters. The political capital of Morocco is Rabat, although the largest city is Casablanca; other major cities include Marrakesh,TetouanTangierSaléFesAgadirMeknesOujdaKenitra, and Nador.
The Moroccan economy is generally diverse but very fragile. About 40% of Moroccans cannot read or write, and the country has high levels of extreme poverty and health care deprivation. Morocco also has a high level ofeconomic inequality. The unemployment rates under the highly educated as well as the unskilled are very high and cause consistent social unrest in many cities and villages. In 2011, the UN's Human Development Index ranked Morocco as the 130th most developed country in the world.
Almost all Moroccans speak BerberMoroccan Arabic, or French as mother tongues. Hassaniya Arabic, sometimes considered as a variety of Moroccan Arabic, is spoken in the southern provinces (Western Sahara) in the country by a small population.

Jersey (play /ˈɜrzi/French: [ʒɛʁzɛ]JèrriaisJèrri), officially the Bailiwick of Jersey (FrenchBailliage de Jersey), is a British Crown Dependency[5] just off the coast of Normandy, France.[6] As well as the island of Jersey itself, the bailiwick includes two groups of small islands that are no longer permanently inhabited, theMinquiers and Écréhous, and the Pierres de Lecq[7] and other rocks and reefs.
Jersey is a self-governing parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarchy, with its own financiallegaland judicial systems,[8] and the power of self-determination.[9]
The island of Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands. Although the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey are often referred to collectively as 'the Channel Islands', they are not a constitutional or political unit. Jersey has a separate relationship to the British Crown from the other Crown Dependencies of Guernsey and the Isle of Man.[10] It is not part of the United Kingdom,[11] and has an international identity separate from that of the UK[12]but the United Kingdom is constitutionally responsible for the defence of Jersey.[13] Jersey is not a part of theEuropean Union but has a special relationship with it, being treated as part of the European Community for the purposes of free trade in goods.[14]

Thanks for taking a look and I hope we work one another in the near future if we have not already.
Planned Operations in December 2012:
I will be one of the Team members; "Buddies in the Caribbean" mini-DXpedition operating from St. Lucia, December 2 - 11, 2012.
My call sign will be J6/W5TDY.
Below is the press release of our adventure:
********************************************************************************************************************************************************
The "Buddies in the Caribbean" suitcase mini-DXpedition group which specializes in 100 watt or less low power radios and Buddipole portable antenna systems is back again to St Lucia (J6) on Dec 2– 11, 2012.
The north shore villa location was magnificent on our first visit in Feb 2010 and subsequent visits in December of the following years with a new group of operators. Our goal is to demonstrate "ultralite" DXpeditioning into magnificent "vista" locations, operating a field portable battery-only radio with backpackable, lightweight antennas and most of all "having fun" with a new group of operators who have never experienced the "other side of a pileup!"
The eight operators this Dec 2012 are: Everett/W6ABM, Robert/N7QT, Hugh/W4VAB, Bryan/WB8ISG, Scott/KA9P, Jerry/W5TDY, Budd/W3FF, and Guy/N7UN. There will be 3 villa stations in operation on 160-10m using CW, SSB, and RTTY or PSK. At the same time, several teams will be battery-only, field portable either from St Lucia beaches or scenic mountain tops and will sign call/p. The group will participate in the ARRL 10m contest (callsign: J68UN) on Dec 8-9th.
QSL via LoTW, eQSL or mail to the operator's home callsign (SASE required).
