Ladies and Gentlemen,
Dear friends and colleagues,

This year’s International Day of Peace may be conducted in one of the most challenging times of the 21st century. We see the powers striving for the rise of old conflicts and rivalries, nationalisms as well as massive armament paired with growing injustices in the world. At the same time we see the further developing of peacebuilding, civil conflict resolution and a strengthening of the United Nations and other peaceful and democratic structures.

The IPB Youth Network and IPB are organising together with NatWiss a public event on the challenges to  peace, as well as a working meeting with several NGOs and stakeholders active in peace in the forthcoming of the organisation of a 2019 Peace Congress. We would like to ask you to register to either event at info@ipb-youthnetwork.org.

Greetings,

Reiner Braun
Marie Cucurella

PROGRAM

Public Event:

Challenges for Peace in the World

The objective of this public event is to highlight and analyze challenges for peace in the world, as well as discuss and strengthen alternatives and ways to create a positive living for future generations.

International Working Meeting

The IPBYN is offering a floor for open discussions, in the framework of topics close to the network (e.g. related to youth, peace and security) and to the organisation of the 2019 World Youth Congress on Peacebuilding.

Through a participatory process, the objective is to come up with meaningful and innovative ideas for each participant to use in their actions and work, and to  share with their networks.
