In spite of our desire for peace, we often find ourselves, our communities, and our world facing fear, isolation, and violence. But we have the power to create change. Use your skills, talents, and resources to join Play for Peace in using laughter and play to create connection, positive change, and peace. The transformation can begin quietly. The sound of laughter floats through the air as children, youth, or adults come together for Practice Peace Sessions involving cooperative activities and teach teamwork, inclusion, and fun. In this safe environment, participants have the opportunity to play with peers from other cultures. Even in communities in conflict, participants can form new friendships and experience “the enemy” as someone not so different from themselves.

Bring Play for Peace to your community today!

Option #1:

Host an Activity

Practice Peace Sessions encourage laughter, connection, and compassion, and help to form positive interactions with people perceived as different. Lasting between 20 minutes and a few hours, they can help you build community with participants of any age or background.

Option #3:

Start a Club or Project

Local leaders are becoming agents of change and ambassadors for peace, using Play for Peace in schools, organizations, neighborhoods, and communities. In a club, group of five young people ages 15–25 can form with the support of local organizations. Projects that fall out of this format will also be considered.
