Those who have moved the world toward peace
are not only superheroes or leaders with special talents.
But they are ordinary young people — like US
who hold pains and uncertainties,
yet still choose to believe that Peace is Possible.
PEACE IS A WAY OF LIFE.
Here, we create a new story of peace together
—one small step at a time.
You don’t need to be perfect.
You don’t need to have special talents.
You only need one belief that...
“PEACE IS POSSIBLE”
In this program, you’ll meet with like-minded peers gathering from all over the world
—those who celebrate differences, listen to each other deeply,
and aim to ignite the light of peace in someone’s heart and spread it to the world.
Now it is the moment for young people across the globe
to gather and shape the Future of Peace.
The Peace Journey Program begins from here NOW.
A Call to Young Peace Leaders!
Curriculum
You will walk alongside young peace-seekers from around the world
—each bringing a piece of peace, and we will shape our peace together.
Together, we imagine, learn, and co-create what peace can look like.
The Peace Journey Program follows a guided yet collaborative curriculum. There are no teachers nor fixed answers.
Instead, we will learn from each other and discover our own paths.
Through reflection, dialogue, and action, each participant of the Program (=Youth Peace Ambassador) will find his/her own
“Peace × 〇〇. (your passion)”
The program is based on four stages of peace, and at the end, each participant will present his/her own “Peace × 〇〇”:
4 Stages of Peace
Build your inner peace.
You will reflect on your turning points, clarify your values, and learn to sit with and express your emotions.
Through gentle self-awareness workshops, you will nurture your own ground, including your values and passion, where peace begins — within.
Learn to live in harmony with others.
Through deep listening, nonviolent communication, and dialogue, you will learn and deepen your understanding of diverse perspectives,
and discover peace not as agreement, but as connection.
Your peace expands outward.
Based on your values, interests, and dreams, you will explore your own peace.
Through talks from peace activists and dialogue with your peers, you will discover your own
Peace × 〇〇 ー
and begin to shape it into action through the reflection and feedback process.
Peace × 〇〇 ?
What is
“Peace × 〇〇” is your own combination of peace + your passion.
It’s the core essence of the program — discovering how you can create peace driven by your passion, interests, and expertise. Participants will spend four months exploring, shaping, and expressing their unique Peace × 〇〇 vision.
For example:
-
Peace × Art
-
Peace × Education
-
Peace × Environment
-
Peace × Technology
-
Peace × (Your Own Passion)
It symbolizes the way you personally bring peace into the world.
