Peace Event with AIESEC Mauritius Global Village
Global Village is the biggest celebration of cultures from around the world. People showcase their nations through singing, dancing, food, customs, costumes, music and traditions! Global Village encourages social sustainability, world awareness, and cultural understanding. It revives the general concept of the world being a ‘global village’ and inspires people to understand and appreciate the uniqueness and difference of each other which further contributes to peace.
JCI Mauritius and JCI Curepipe collaborated with AIESEC Mauritius to promote peace and Unity in Diversity during the 2016 AIESEC Global Village. A Peace Wall was set up and youngsters from different countries were invited to share messages of peace and commit to peace. The event showed the participation of more than 500 people. We also had the chance to have a glimpse of the different cultures under one roof. Together we all can make Peace Possible!
A video was also recorded on different peace messages by diverse nationalities.
