This exhibition was produced to mark the centenary of the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the International Peace Bureau (IPB), Geneva, in 1910. A tribute to the people who — all over the planet — devote their time, energy and resources to the cause of peace.
Produced by the International Peace Bureau (IPB) Making Peace is a major outdoor photo exhibition (100 panels measuring 5 ft x 4 ft) that presents the international peace movement in its broadest sense and how these persons and organizations have shaped and influenced the course of the 20th century: that despite two World Wars and many bloody conflicts, there have been significant triumphs, such as the end of the Cold War and the apartheid regime, the banning of antipersonnel landmines and the creation of the International Criminal Court (ICC) – all of which were in large part the result of civil society efforts.
Importantly the exhibition explains what five essential elements are necessary to create a sustainable peace and invites people, especially youth to get involved in peace making activities.
Produced by the International Peace Bureau and curated by Ashley Woods (REALexpo.org)……
