The Idea

Because two-dimensional definitions don’t cut it. Because we can’t afford to not know what "war" and "peace" really are in our life. Because we must share what these forces look like, smell like, taste like, sound like and feel like in order to really know what we want to transform and what we want to cultivate.

Youth at War & Peace is a global platform for youth-created art emerging from the experience and understanding of war & peace. Designed to challenge misconceptions and showcase the most insightful youth created poetry, short prose, photography, video and visual art, Youth at War & Peace is a creative exploration of these poles of experience from the perspective of the world’s inheritors.
