With every visitor stepping into the doors of the academic building at UWC Dilijan, tours begin with a powerful message displayed on the wall: "UWC makes education a force to unite people, nations, and cultures for peace and a sustainable future." As a guide for these tours, I made it a point to pause at this message, articulating every word with deliberate care, as its significance resonated within me deeply. Education is a force that shaped my own path – none of the achievements, personal growth, or opportunities for higher education in the U.S. would have possible without the vision of Ruben Vardanyan and Veronika Zonabend to establish an international boarding school in Armenia, catalyzing the broader mission of UWC International. I firmly believe in education as the ultimate equalizer. Having experienced firsthand the disruptions caused by conflict and war, I've seen how it can break the dreams of youth. It is easy to blame, to say they should have tried harder. But the reality is far more complex. How can one focus on learning and seeing a brighter future when survival is a daily struggle? What is more difficult to do, is to inspire – to uplift, encourage, and give hope. I am immensely grateful to Projects for Peace for recognizing the potential of my project in the 2024 grantee cohort, "Hooys: Planting Seeds of Hope in Artsakh Youth." My project aims to empower the youth of Nagorno-Karabakh refugees who were forced to leave their homeland due to the impact of wars and a blockade. Through virtual workshops featuring discussions, group activities, and guest speakers, the project is intended to contribute to global peacemaking efforts by catalyzing personal, intellectual, and communal growth. Each year, Projects for Peace grants $1.25 million to student leaders who are developing innovative, community-centered, and scalable responses to the world’s most pressing issues. I am deeply grateful to Lisa Grimes, whose support has been instrumental in every phase of this process. I carry with me the UWC mission statement as I take this small but meaningful step in making opportunities visible and accessible to those who need it the most. https://lnkd.in/eX2kwrjm https://lnkd.in/eSsxgEDr

From 3 to 13 April 2025, the European Youth Parliament (EYP) will hold its 101st International Session in The Hague. For more than a week, 300 young people from across the continent will gather in the diplomatic hub of #peace and justice. In committee meetings and plenary debates, they will discuss solutions to issues of #security, peace and #democracy. The conference takes place 80 years after the end of World War II and will therefore be dedicated to commemoration and reflection on peace and security. Within the theme "young visions of peace and security", the participants will work in groups on political issues around #defence, democracy and #economy. In addition, the programme includes visits to ministries, embassies and other government institutions, as well as diplomatic and professional training. The event is organised entirely by a team of dozens of #young #volunteers, and further fully depends on financial support from commercial and public bodies. As partners of The Hague 2025, companies and organisations can propose debate topics and build brand awareness among a large group of young Europeans. The European Youth Parliament (EYP) is an international network of 25,000 politically engaged young people in 35 countries. Its 400 annual conferences aim to inform and inspire a young generation of open-minded, responsible and active citizens. The organisation enjoys the patronship of Ursula von der Leyen and Roberta Metsola, the Presidents of the European Commission and the European Parliament respectively. The European Youth Parliament the Netherlands previously successfully organised an International Conference in Rotterdam with the support of Prof Dr Jan Peter Balkenende and Drs Frans van Houten. A year from now, The Hague will not only be the international capital of peace and justice, but also a week-long hub of young visions for a peaceful future of Europe. More information on participation and sponsorship is available at https://lnkd.in/ehBbCEzU. #ReadyForTHIS25

There must be a bench of technocratic and capable Palestinians to serve as the foundations of a new Palestinian Authority, projects, backed by teams of technical experts from Europe and the United States (and not from the politically, intellectually, and morally bankrupt United Nations) who can help set up real ministries, new education systems, and productive economic programs that can sustain growth. Absent such an effort, it will be the status quo ante, with war and respite, war and respite.
