Posted: Mon Jul 27, 2009 5:25 am
Well I never expected the first one to generate much interest anyway, but now that I know a few were actually looking into it, I'll post it here for advice and then actually submit it.
Council: General Assembly
Category: Education and Creativity
Resolution Name: Numismatics Appreciation Act
Effect: Cultural Heritage
APPLAUDING the attempt by many nations to preserve and promote their cultural heritage,
NOTING that the cultural heritage of a nation may span a wide range of topics,
RECOGNIZING a nation's currency in both coin and paper form are a monumental part of the history of a nation,
DEFINING a coin as a form of currency that is often metallic,
ALSO DEFINING a banknote as a form of currency that is often made from paper or paper-like materials,
1. Establishes the World Assembly Numismatics Authority (WANA) in the effort to educate the general public about the value of their nation's currency,
2. Dictates WANA shall be funded by the World Assembly General Fund and through donations made by willing nations and individuals,
3. Charges WANA with the duties of:
a) collecting samples of nations' currency through donations of money and/or actual currency and displaying them in museums accessible to the public of an individual nation,
b) holding seminars in willing nations about the appreciation, collection and preservation of currency for a nation's public to enjoy,
c) preserving the samples collected as best to the organization's ability so they may be appreciated by future generation,
4. Demands in one way or another that each World Assembly member nation preserve certain editions of its coins and banknotes, and urges that participation in WANA could help each nation meet this requirement.
