We are twelve members of the board. Twelve is the number of full lunations of the moon in a year. It is a number central to many systems of timekeeping including the Western Calendar and units of time of day and frequently appears in the world´s major religions. The number twelve carries religious, mythological and magical symbolism, generally representing perfection, entirety, or cosmic order in traditions since antiquity.

Ishmael, the first son of Abraham, had twelve sons and Jacob also had twelve sons who are the progenitors of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. The twelve-tone technique, also called dodecaphony is a method of musical composition devised by the Jewish composer Arnold Schoenberg. Twelve-tone Music is used in his masterpiece opera “Moses und Aron” written in Barcelona.

We are a peace making board with two members from the Middle East, one Arab and one Israeli.

In the board we have members from the three Abrahamic religions: Jews, Christians and Muslims and we also have one Shintoist, one Buddhist and one Hindu.
