I can genuinely say that I have just participated in one of the most humbling experiences of my life.
It is a few experiences that make you see the world in a new way, whilst simultaneously structuring bridges of support and resources. Thus, enabling the realisation of the ideal worlds existent in our imaginaries.
At the Peace Summit at the UN Bangkok, I would say that the 348 emerging leaders present would agree that the conference, the speakers and the organisers have shown us what the path to peace should and can look like ~ including meeting each and every humans’ basic needs to freedom of persecution, discrimination and violence.
No matter your race, religion, gender, or sexuality. Name it – every human has the right to dignity, to freedom. But that most of all, as Annelize Palmer wisely shared with us: “First of all, to create peace, one must be You cannot create peace if you are disturbed”.
I cannot share with you all what four days of immersion in peace talks, workshops, interactions, and more, we’re like. I can only tell you what has been the most inspiring and life-changing of all, which is, all of the beautiful humans that I met from 55 countries.
May we all inspire and make the world the best possible place we can be, in our journey as Peace Ambassadors.
