The Global Peace Convention (GPC) is an annual gathering of peace builders from around the world. It began as a result of the excitement and positive impact of the Global Peace Festivals (GPF) held throughout since 2007. The Convention is an opportunity to exchange information and learn from best practices to improve the quality of all peace-building projects. The Convention brings together key leaders in the realms of politics, civil society, and religion to discuss creative approaches to pressing global issues.
