The World Peace Flame
has been and continues
to be a symbol of
peace, unity, freedom and
celebration.
Join us in celebrating the World Peace Flame and perform an act of kindness.
Make a difference to someone’s life. Make today special - which of course is an open invitation to then continue and make every day a special day for yourself and the people around you. By design.
One kind gesture, one conversation, one thought at a time.
Thank you!
A Powerful Mission with a Global Vision
Imagine if every man, woman and child in every nation and country, from every religion and creed, were united in peace. Our dream is as simple as its ambitious, one flame uniting people worldwide.
Spreading Peace
The World Peace Flame is dedicated to achieving peace through education and practical support of grassroots peace initiatives.
Peace Education in Action
A legacy of peace starts with children.
That is why we have developed the Peace Education Package which we offer to schools for free.
Education is the key to lasting peace
Approaching 1000 schools across five continents are using the package. That’s more than 80,000 children who are learning to celebrate the diversity they see around them and who are being encouraged to embrace the unity.
Humanitarian Projects
Our humanitarian projects in India aim to empower people at all levels from medical camps to youth education programmes and with clothing and food distribution.
