Unite for Peace - A Zoom Event

Peace is more than the absence of violence.
Positive Peace Pillars are the building blocks of sustainable societies.
And as Rotary members we share the role of Peacebuilders around the world.
Unite for Peace brings together global voices, real stories, and moments of connection, from people who have fled conflict, to those helping others heal and rebuild, to those bringing disparate views together in empathy and understanding, to leaders shaping what peace looks like in action.
This is what Rotary members do.
This is a conversation worth being part of.
