Peace Voices: "What does Peace mean to you?"

We have collected messages from more than 1,300 young people asking the question: “What does peace mean to you?”

Join this global movement and share your message too.

Peace Café

Peace Café is a monthly dialogue space where young people gather in small groups to explore peace together. Unlike Peace Journey, it is non-selective and welcomes the first 100 participants. It offers a space to connect with like-minded peers, encounter diverse perspectives, and discover new possibilities for creating peace in their lives and communities.

Peace Journey 

Peace Journey invites you to explore peace not as a distant ideal, but as a way of living that begins within. Through reflection, dialogue, and shared action, participants experience a journey that connects inner peace with peace in the world.

Peace Summit 

A Peace Summit is an in-person gathering that brings people together to share ideas, inspire action, and collaborate to build a more peaceful world.

Message from Initiator

In our lives, we carry many “labels.”

Japanese. Woman. Student.
As we grow, these labels naturally begin to follow us.

Sometimes, they help us connect with others who share the same identity.
But at the same time, they can quietly create invisible walls—
moments of separation from those who seem different from us.
 

In such a world, I often find myself wondering:
"What is the one thing that can unite humanity beyond all labels?"
 

The answer I found was simple, yet universal:

"the heartfelt desire to create peace."
 

The wish for peace leaves no one behind.
It transcends nationality, religion, gender, and generation.
It is an open door— a feeling that anyone can hold, anywhere in the world.

 

No matter how different our labels may be,
no matter how diverse our values are,
the desire to “live in peace” and “build a peaceful world”
quietly but powerfully connects us all.

Youth Peace Ambassadors is a global network of young people brought together
by this shared desire for peace.

It doesn’t matter who you are.
Where you are from.
What you believe.
Or what you cherish.

Our differences don’t create walls.
In fact, the more diverse our perspectives are,
the more real and achievable peace becomes.

Why?
Because we’re all walking toward the same horizon—

toward “peace,”
a dream shared by all of humanity.

Youth Peace Ambassadors is a place
where we welcome companions who want to nurture that dream

and walk that path together.
