Our Story
Peace First elevates the voices and unleashes the power of young people worldwide to create meaningful change in their communities.
Since our launch in 1992, more than 30,000 young people from across the globe have come to Peace First with an idea to tackle the most urgent challenges in their societies. Our mission is to make resources and tools for effecting change readily available to young people, empowering them with the necessary skills to become leaders of change within their communities.
We support young people with the skills and commitment to solve problems by:
- Connecting with others with compassion
- Standing up for ideals and others with courage
- Creating collaborative change.
- Inspiring action by sharing stories of impact
