Ideas 

Take! 

Here you find various ideas that may serve somehow the protection of life, i.e. propositions for the production of materials or Web sites, ideas for projects and activities, for the change of public consciousness and other work in public, for political and social activities.

Give! 

We would be very glad if you made us known ideas that may serve the protection of life. If occasion arises, a short explanation to the ideas might be helpful. We beg your comprehension that we can offer your ideas on this Web site only in the case that you assure explicitly that they are allowed to be used for purposes of life protection without charges, costs or copyright. Moreover, in every case we have to keep in reserve to decide if we will publish your ideas. We like to thank you very much for your co-operation!

You want to improve pro-life movement?
You think, that flyers or postcard actions are not enough?

Then produce, collect and distribute yourself new and good ideas, perhaps together with others who think like you! Examples:

• Found an Idea Club, and meet regularly
• Create an Online Idea Pool: Collect ideas on a website and present them
• Establish an Idea Newsletter for those who are interested in pro-life

New Material:

• Shaped / stamped feet:


You know pins with the little feet (or hands) of a 10 or 12 weeks old embryo. The idea: shape or stamp such feet on stickers, on postcards etc., so that they come a little bit out of the material. You can feel these feet with your fingers. It looks very fine on white paper. A possible text may be: "Feet of a child 10 (or 12) weeks after conception". You could add an appeal like "Protect human life from beginning".
 

• Heartbeat Cards:


You surely know the postcards wich let hear a melody when they are opened.

The idea: a card with the sound of the HEART OF AN UNBORN BABY. This postcard can be used for several purposes: as BIRTHDAY CARD, as congratulation to a newborn child, as tag to a gift, as demonstration in schools and kindergardens, and so on. Possible text: "Did you know that the heart of an unborn baby begins to beat three weeks after conception?" or "Do you hear? So your heart sounded some weeks after your conception. It already began to beat after three weeks!"

Don't YOU think such a postcard can convince people that life of humans really begins with conception? The heart of the baby already beats when the pregnant woman does not know that she is pregnant!

There are several sounds of the heartbeat of an unborn to find in internet. Some electronic companies produce such cards. They use for this purpose a CHIP called "SOUND MODULE" or "VOICE MODULE" or "MELODY MODULE" or "DIGITAL RECORDING MODULE" or "VOICE IC MODULE CHIP". ("Voice" is better than "sound", for it's a better quality).

You also can use the sound of the LAUGHING or the SPEACH TRIALS of a baby.

A hint: The production will only be cheap enough with a greater number of cards.
