The Global Peace
Festival (GPF) is an expression of the universal
human aspiration for a world of lasting peace. GPF
promotes and celebrates persons and programs that
contribute to reconciliation, mutual respect,
harmony and cooperation among the members of the
whole human family, as ‘One Family Under God’. In
partnership with a variety of faith-based
organizations, secular NGOs, government agencies,
educational institutions, and representatives of the
private sector, GPF encourages programs that
strengthen God-centered marriages and families,
facilitate intercultural and interreligious
cooperation, and foster a culture of peace and
service. GPF programs are carried out throughout the
year, and culminate in a biennial festival,
showcasing both the achievements made and the
developing opportunities toward the goal of lasting
peace.
