Human Rights -
Empowering Children
Let's give our children a voice and a choice!
Our 3rd Annual Virtual Conference featured 20+ speakers and dozens of partner groups.
The webinar was presented via Zoom, and included more than 6 hours of content.
Many segments of the webinar will be available soon on our YouTube channel.
We all say we want peace, but what does it really take to make it happen? What can we learn that will help us live in peace? With ourselves? With each other? With our planet?
These questions deserve answers and we’re about to discover them together during the 3rd Annual Online Conference for Global Peace Education Day, You won't want to miss these stimulating sessions with some of the world’s leading authorities on the topic of practicing peace - educators and executives, diplomats and dignitaries, scholars and scientists, artists and athletes - all with skills of peace to share.
This year’s theme is Human Rights - Empowering Children, honoring the 75th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. (Did you know that this is the world’s most translated document?) We’ll explore the ways that peace education helps give our children a voice and a choice.
You won't want to miss this exciting opportunity. We hope you can join us for Global Peace Education Day.
