At this year’s Children’s World Peace Summit, more than 200 ideas for creating peace were submitted from eight countries, and eleven child representatives were selected from among them to give speeches at the International Conference Hall of the House of Representatives.
In the presence of ambassadors and diplomats representing six countries (France, Cote d’Ivoire, Lithuania, Pakistan, Lithuania, and Senegal) and watched by adults representing the world, astronaut Naoko Yamazaki and other judges awarded the Most peaceful prize to the following three students.
●Yuka Takenaka (age 15)
Together with people all over the world, we will protect the World Heritage, a treasure common to all humankind, and pass it on to future generations to create a peaceful and bright world.
●Yuna Nonaka (age 16)
To create a system where children can say “NO” to wars started by adults
●Mirei Kadonaga (age 17)
Building a “Global Medical Call” system to eliminate disparities in medical care
Other great ideas presented included creating a tic-toc trend called “Peace Dance” and promoting the “Itadakimasu Zukan” to help people feel the invisible “life.” These and other great ideas surprised adults.
We have received many comments from the audience that they were moved to tears and were moved to tears, such as the hope that the children’s future is our hope and that the children who gave presentations will represent the children and that each one of them will gather their strength to create peace.
Thank you very much for helping us hold this event.
We would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you.
The Children’s World Peace Summit is officially registered as a co-creation challenge of TEAM EXPO for Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai, and we are aiming to realize world peace by holding the Children’s World Peace Summit with 100 million children in 100 countries around the world.
We would be honored if you would continue to support our activities.
