Global Peace Convention

Peacebuilding for the 21st Century:

Interfaith, Service and Family

Dear Young Leader,

On behalf of the international host committee and the Youth Federation for World Peace, we would like to invite you to participate in the upcoming Global Peace Convention, which will be convened from December 10-14, 2009, in Manila, Philippines, with a focus on the theme: "Peacebuilding for the 21st Century: Interfaith, Service and Family."

The Convention will bring together leading voices from around the world, including youth service and interfaith leaders, social entrepreneurs, and representatives from government and the private sector. The Convention is an opportunity to exchange information and share best practices to improve the quality of all peace-building projects. A variety of educational seminars, workshops, cultural events, and optional recreational activities will enable you to network with colleagues as well as experience the richness of Filipino culture.

The Global Peace Convention will also contribute directly to promising regional initiatives, such as peace building and conflict resolution projects among Muslims, Christians, and indigenous peoples on the Philippine island of Mindanao. An optional fact-finding tour of Mindanao will be available to Conference delegates.

We look forward to prominent representation of young leaders who will play a key role at the Convention, as well as in peace building efforts that will follow from this summit.

What is GPF?

The Global Peace Festival is held every 2 years bringing together activists, NGO's and other organization or institutions that share a common vision for peace, and who wish to assist the United Nations in achieving their Millennium Development Goals. This festival is a platform from which they can all share their ideas and endeavours, and create the opportunity to celebrate their achievements, develop partnerships and launch new initiatives together.

How you can join us?

The Global Peace festival is all about partners supporting and learning from each other. You or your organisation can either make partnerships with the working groups or just simply because you want to support or endorse the GPF project.
