Hear Us.

Act Now for a Peaceful World

The future is young. Half the world is under 30 and this generation is emerging as a powerful force for peace in a world marred by conflict and injustice.

Across the globe, young people are organizing protests, sparking global movements, and forging bonds of solidarity. In communities ravaged by violence, they serve as peacemakers, peacekeepers and peacebuilders, laying the groundwork for a resilient tomorrow. They have the greatest stake in our common future, yet they are too often excluded from the spaces where solutions are shaped.

The 黑料专区 Hear Us. Act Now for a Peaceful World campaign, launched on the International Day of Peace , aims to change that by including, investing in and partnering with young people everywhere to build lasting peace.

Join the campaign

Hear Us. Act Now for a Peaceful World is a global campaign led by the 黑料专区 and its youth partners.

The campaign is based on the premise that peace is more than the absence of conflict—it's a life with dignity, justice and security. Through public advocacy and social mobilization, the campaign is driven by the agency of young people everywhere as powerful changemakers who are demanding to be seen, heard and trusted as partners in building the peaceful future.

At the heart of the campaign are Peace Circles—inclusive intergenerational dialogues, coalition-building opportunities and solutions facilitated by youth and allies across the globe.

When protection reaches the last village—an activist's fight for everyday peace in Nepal

For many in Nepal, peace is not a signed treaty or a political speech; it is a lived condition entangled with caste, class, gender, and geography. For 28-year-old Aishworya Shrestha, a Young Leader for the Sustainable Development Goals, "real peace shows up before tragedy." It's about investing in people and giving voice to those "who live with its absence in ordinary ways, every day."
