World Peace Initiative
Peace In + Peace Out = Sustainable World Peace."Welcome to World Peace Initiative Foundation
World Peace Initiative Foundation (WPI) invites you to explore peace through the age old tradition of meditation. We have broken down the practice into simple elements practicable for anyone, anywhere regardless of race, religion or social status! Read more about us and our activities across the world below!
On March 3-7 WPI Foundation held the first of a kind camp for university students from Asia Pacific University, Beppu, Japan. As the result of this Empowerment camp, the students founded a PIPO club in their university that will hold weekly meditations and other activities.
February 23-28 Peace Revolution organized a #meditationweek challenge on Facebook and Instagram, every day we talked about one aspect of meditation and asked the participants to share their perspective. Now we would like to share the best posts by the participants of the #meditationweek.

Special Feature: Meet our Peace Coaches
The journey to find inner peace is never done alone. Across the globe, Peace Revolution nurtures and trains Peace Coaches who have immense openness to guide and share with new participants - Peace Rebels - the path to inner peace. As a sign of gratitude, Peace Revolution sponsors these coaches to attend fellowships as a mentor around the world. We have approached some of the coaches, who recently qualified for this dream trip and here is what they had to say:
"It is a wonderful feeling to be able to guide Peace Rebels from all over the world while they discover meditation and its life-changing benefits. It is a virtuous cycle: coaching brings peace to new meditators, putting their experience and insights into perspective; engaging with them sheds light into my own meditation experience. A beautiful example of a constructive human interaction, sharing peace, sharing loving kindness with all. Dare to try!"" {Vera Quina}
"I feel grateful to have become a Peace Coach and have the opportunity to help others learn about meditation. It's been a wonder to see how meditation starts to change the life of Peace Rebels; their daily transformation also helps and motivates me to keep growing and to believe that World Peace is possible."" {Tania Palma}
"For me, my Peace Rebels are like Soap Bubbles. I enjoy helping them to develop and grow. And when they are ready, I let them go to fly to the World with a beautiful Smile on their faces and with pure souls."" {Marija Sotirov aka Mary}
