Chief Executive Officer Message

“Peace is the stillness of mind. In today’s political climate, peace can take many shapes and forms; however, we can identify peace by some of its unequivocal traits: Love, trust, humbleness, partnership, tolerance, and inclusivity.
These traits are fundamental to the healthy growth of individuals, communities, and society. It is when innovative humans advocate for inclusivity, tolerance and coexistence, that the world can change. It is when individuals choose love, trust, and humility, that nations can alter their negative cultural traits.
We are currently witnessing a fourth social revolution. Technology has provided us with a platform where voices are amplified, and human behavior cannot overshadow or hidden; However, we should be aware of the message we want to convey. We see more international alliances frayed by the actions (and inactions) of states’ citizens.

 

As Agents of Peace, we must find solutions that disregards man’s inclination and instincts for misconception, chaos, and fallacy. Peace must shine by long term propositions versus short term paradigms.
We believe that peace can be obtainable through educational camps, partnerships, dialogue with stakeholders such as, but not limited to, diplomats, religious scholars, and community-based organizations.
Approximately 120 million people have died due to war-related conflicts. Yes, the number increases, but youth voices can tackle this challenge. As Reinhold Niebuhr said, “man’s capacity of justice makes democracy, but man’s inclination for injustice makes democracy.”  The paradox is simple.

Peace is a Pollyanna mentality; peace is order defeating chaos.”

Co-Founder & Director Message

A rather textbook definition of peace defines it as the concept of societal friendship and harmony in the absence of hostility and violence. As straightforward as it sounds, this is exactly the kind of environment that we wish to formulate. From the beginning of time, survival has been the need of humankind, to thrive unaltered in their course of life. While a worthy cause on its own, the biggest drawback to such a mindset was the ignorance of harmony in the environment. Wars were waged, empires built and shattered, all for the sake of continual and unhindered success. Present times, however, have a different ethos accompanying them. We live in a society and world where our most trivial of needs have a way of being met, hence the purpose of trampling others to gain something for ourselves is lost. The exigency of today is the unhindered establishment of a peaceful habitat for all of us to reside in, sans the constant fear of being trampled upon by those more powerful than us.

The purpose of establishing peace is lost on none, it is the act of achieving it that poses an utmost dilemma. Our purpose and paramount missions are to inculcate such a sense of tranquility in the lives of all those who suffer, or are in need of a hand to hold on to; to provide love and a promise of trust without asking for anything in return. We as humanity have lost the innate instinct of being human towards each other, through the efforts of every individual who wishes to simply help their fellow humans in need, we plan on creating a uniquely humane world. Lastly, in the words of Albert Einstein lies the crux of my message

‘Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.’

Azat Altun / İSTANBUL – Kürt gençleri, İstanbul’da düzenlenen Küresel Barış Zirvesi’ne Kürdistan Bayrağı ve ulusal kıyafetlerle katıldı.

2020 Küresel Barış Zirvesi, 15-18 Ekim tarihleri arasında İstanbul’da gerçekleşti.

75 ülkeden temsilcinin katılımıyla gerçekleşen Zirve’ye Kürdistan Bölgesi’nden gençler de katıldı.

Kürdistan Bayrağı ile ulusal Kürt kıyafetleriyle Zirve’ye katılan Kürt gençleri barışın öneminden ve savaşın son bulması gerektiğinden söz etti.

Kürdistan Bölgesi adına Zirve’ye katılan Duhoklu Muhammed Mesih, “Gerçekleşen Zirve’de, DAİŞ’e karşı eşi benzeri görülmeyen bir savaş yürüten; örgütü yenen ve Ortadoğu’da örgütün tehdidini ortadan kaldıran Kürdistan Peşmergelerinden bahsettik” dedi.

K24’e konuşan Mesih, devletlere çağrıda bulunduklarını belirterek, barışı sağlamaları gerektiğini söylediklerini ve Kürtlerin devlet olmak hakkının olduğunu dile getirdiklerini vurguladı.

Türkiyeli yetkililere seslendiklerini söyleyen Mesih, şunları dile getirdi:

“Türkiyeli yöneticilere savaşa son vermesi ve barışı tesis etmesi çağrısında bulunduk. Tek gerçeklik var: Ölüme kadar komşuyuz. Artık annelerimizin ağlaması ve çocuklarının öldürülmesi son bulsun. Her ulus özgürce yaşamalı. Dolayısıyla Kürtlerin devlet olma ve özgürce yaşama hakkı var.”

K24’e konuşan Diyarbakırlı Jiyan Demir, “Diyarbakır’dan Zirve’ye katıldım, kuzeyden bir tek ben katıldım. Güneyden arkadaşlarımız da var. Gençler farklı ülkelerden buraya gelerek barışın tesisi hakkında konuştu. Biz de Kürt ulusu için ses olmaya geldik” ifadelerini kullandı.

Our Coverage

Global Peace Chain

The Universe is created in a way that seems to follow the pattern of Coordination. Every universal body manifests the unprecedented form of co-existence. Human is a social living being which needs cooperation and cohesion within the people for the survival. The factors that demolish this favorable cooperation leads to the unpeaceful happenings in the world. Peace is the condition of acceptance and composure that is nourished by empathy and Coordination.

In order to achieve the Global Peace, World nations have to recognize the elements of disturbance that is blooming in frantic manner. To search and study the buds of collision that is sprouting the substantial unpeaceful sensations in the world and then to nip the evil in the bud is an effective approach to make this earth a peaceful and better place to live. By thoroughly inspecting the devastating factors, the most notable and highly considerable elements are Economic and Political flaws. Furthermore, as peace originate with in an individual to make up an entire peaceful system, there is lack of proper peace education in the people.

The Economic splash in some countries of the world making their citizens violent. It is elevating the crime rate and leading to uncertain conditions of some areas. The flourishing corruption and unequal distribution of wealth making it worse. By facilitating the system with accountable and effective legal framework, world can make its way towards global peace. As the people will get rid of their frustration regarding the corrupt system, they will move away from violence, negativity and abhorrence. Economic stability will help in the prerequisite of Human Prosperity which in turns contribute to the global peace chain.

The Influential Political System can play its role in peace building process. The peace evoking campaigns and movements should be encouraged at government level. The leadership of the world can bring peace by making good relations with the neighboring countries. To provide the humanitarian aid to other countries in case of crises can achieve world peace. All the government officials should hold the narrative of Peace and Consonance. Nowadays, peace for global is disturbed due to inevitable wars between several countries, taking military and humanitarian expense and unleashing the constant fearful environment of losing lives instantly in war attacks. Some countries like Syria, Iraq, Palestine, and Yemen are suffering with severe conditions of war. People are facing the deprivation of primitive life amenities like food, water and Health supply. Wars demolish the huge infrastructures and make the land ruined by letting people live miserably in camps. The Stubborn political Leadership of these countries in war are not choosing peace for their generations. Only the mutual relationship and effective Dialogue round the table can save these countries from further destruction.

Youth of the world which is the major changing element, is involved in emerging conflicts of racism, discrimination and extremism. To educate the youth with peace lessons, Peace Education should be prevailed with the core objectives of inculcating the broad sense of Peace with in themselves. Peace education will comprise of teaching the humanitarian aspects without discrimination. They can contribute as peace builders, Social and human Activist and influential. By creating the diverse environment and make them adaptable to the diverse human natures, ideas,visions, race, religion, color and culture, can make them peace builders and peace promoters. Youth of the world is the only hope to save the people of world from further suffering and to achieve eternal Global peace. Peace is the dire need of the global community and every effort to make it realized is worth cheering and praising. To save many innocent lives from poverty, War attacks and ignorance, peace should be availed on the urgent basis.
