“The purpose of peace education is personal and social transformation, and transformation with a clear vision of a peaceful and unified society.”

“When I returned from IYP I had so many ideas.” Sadhu shared the trainings from IYP with young people between 12 and 35 as well as some teachers of Saturdayschools and other young people who worked with youth groups. He was amazed by the excitement and motivation of the young people he was talking to. 

 “The group of young leaders illumined by a new vision and inspired by love will develop volition to engage in acts of service to their community.”
