The year began with Act for Peace, focused on the values of Line A – the Heart: hope, compassion and justice. Now, from April to June, we continue with Build for Peace, based on Line B – the Head.
This phase centers on the intellectual foundations of peace: learning, science, and wisdom. Peace grows when we learn, question, and seek understanding – and when we act on what we know.
To make these values visible, participants are invited to plant one or more trees, each dedicated to one of the three values. A simple symbol is shown in the photo or video:
Learning and knowledge
Science and evidence-based decision-making
Wisdom
The trees can be newly planted or existing – what matters is the intention and the reflection behind the act.
Explore the Peace Circle and its values Virtually
To support learning and engagement, we invite you to explore our interactive environment:360° Peace Circle – Liperi, Finland
This virtual space allows you to walk through the symbolic structure of the Peace Circle and reflect on the values of Line B. It’s an open resource for schools, communities and individuals looking to connect thought with action.
A Moment of Hope Within the Campaign – May 9 at 12:00
A Minute for Hope brings Line A – the Heart into direct connection with Line B – the Head. It reminds us that peace is both felt and learned – and made real through action.
On May 9 – Europe Day, at 12:00 local time, we come together around the world forA Minute for Hope – a shared moment of doing good.
It can be:
Planting a tree and showing its symbol
Doing something kind for someone or the environment
Sharing a message, image, or moment of hope
This is your invitation to learn, act, and share. Plant a tree. Dedicate it to a value. Do something good. Join people around the world in building peace —with knowledge, kindness, and hope.
