MasterPeace is an international bottom-up peace initiative with the major goal to involve people in peace building. We want to mobilize millions of people - amongst the international civil society - to do work for the sake of peace in the broadest sense, including (social) sustainability, the reduction of (armed) conflicts (on both private and global levels) and international collaboration. MasterPeace will be the most heartwarming peace project ever, as a result of an intensive East-West cooperation, in co-creation with musicians, artists, peace-workers, journalists, cities, companies, and other members from civil society. Through music, art, new media, grass root involvement and the development of the International Day of Peace, MasterPeace will encourage dialogue, togetherness and social sustainability from small local neighbourhoods to large conflict areas, worldwide.
