Initiative for Peace

Youth connecting youth to build sustainable peace. #UWCSEA students organise conferences for young people from divided communities around the world.

Come join us in May to talk about how to build empathy and activism in our students and meet some other great educators, innovators and students doing cool things too!

[Dr Ellen Heyting (she/her) @EHeyting]

Proud to share the work of @HundrEDorg and their fantastic collection of innovations with the @CEESAorg network at #CEESA2019. I might be slightly biased but had to lead with the incredible achievements of students from @UWCSEA_East and @UWCSEA_Dover in @IfPeace_

Very proud to be able to represent @IfPeace_ and all the hard work of the amazing students of @UWCSEA_East and @UWCSEA_Dover at @HundrEDorg’s innovation summit in Helsinki last year

Some good news for 2018. Individual leaders may be disappointing but the aggregate of humanity’s achievements gives us much to celebrate. https://t.co/axNdadll5F

Closing ceremony for the Mae Sot conference underway. Well done @UWCSEA_Dover @UWCSEA_East

[Initiative for Peace @IfPeace_]

IFP Mae Sot’s service day and so much more-delegates are now considering ways to bring change to their communities

[Initiative for Peace @IfPeace_]

Inspired to hear of the @UWCSEA_Dover @UWCSEA_East #ifpeace legacy in #TimorLeste: former IFP delegates established Youth for Peace in 2009, empowering changemakers in their communities who now run their own annual conferences for #sustainablepeace #uwclearn
