My aim is also to find a way to achieve a world where war is impossible (see my blog: http://bit.ly/bGgbmH). I have written a book 'world without war: made possible by empowered individuals' )http://amzn.to/aSZhi1) which will shortly be available on Kindle. It deals with religious and sectarian communication to enable negotiation for true consensus by removing otherwise irreconcilable verses in doctrines. It finds that negotiation must be an an equal footing, where power-play is not allowed. This has for instance been achieved in Ache, Ireland, Zimbabwe (as a first step), and most impressively in Europe, where the EU was started by two people, Robert Schumann, and Adenauer, who wanted to stop the continual wars between European nations. I see you as a potential ally in this effort.
